<Swing Dev> JOptionPane doesn't receive mouse events when opened from a drop event

[Robert Krüger]

Hi,

sorry if I abuse this list but since there's no way to add feedback to
bugs.java.com I consider this self defense in a way ;-).

I also ran into bug 8134917 and would like to confirm that it is real. It
happens here on 1.8u60 (in 100% of the cases) and on yesterday's 1.8u66ea
but not on 1.8u51 (did not test 9 ea yet), OS is Mac OSX 10.10.2.

I am posting this here because I got the impression the low priority of
this bug is due to it not being reproducible in tests by on of your devs
but it is real, it is a regression and it renders a lot of software useless
(after all, confirming a drop in a JOptionPane is not exactly an
extraordinary thing to do) if not worked around by ugly things like
invoking the code using SwingUtilities.invokeLater.

Hope this helps,

Robert
