Disable drag and drop in Firefox

I think the drag and drop of images and text in Firefox (especially Firefox 3) is annoying.

It's possible to disable it by setting nglayout.enable_drag_images to false in about:config.

I changed it but still drag & drop works.

Agreed. I especially find surprise URL dragging from the address box to be very annoying, when I'm trying to select text in the URL. The option in about:config seems intended only for images. I want to turn off text dragging, as I have no need for it.

I want to turn off d&d altogether too; but inexplicably sad, have not found a way.
