Amazing. I bet this is a platform feature.

(related to XAML islands, tearouts, capturing the mouse across elevation boundaries, etc.)

Are you guys trying to heal this bug holistically or something?

You're funny.
If by holistically you mean "by approaching the people on the Windows platform who own drag/drop to let them know that the drag/drop model doesn't support this use case properly" and "getting them to consider this a valuable feature", yes.

So, you're saying it's unequivocally their fault? That's brave of you.

The platform team has said that they are not going to fix it. They want us to detect when running as administrator and disable drag & drop activity.

Prevent tab reordering while elevated

There's a platform limitation that causes us to crash when we rearrange
tabs. Xaml tries to send a drag visual (to wit: a screenshot) to the
drag hosting process, but that process is running at a different IL than
us.

For now, we're disabling elevated drag.

Fixes #3581
