The color of the label remains the one defined in the ":active" style (and in DOM inspector, the css rule shows that :active is still taken into account. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. set up and startdrag handler on an element with an :active style 2. Drag and drop the element 3. Actual Results: The active style remains even when element is no longer selected Expected Results: The element should be reset to its default style
can you please attach a minimal testcase that shows this problem? ('Add an attachment' above)
install the xpi, restart, then call URI chrome://test/chrome/test.xul Drag the label, drop it, it remains red, as defined in the :active style (style are declared with a data: protocol, but it is the same with a separate style sheet, I just made it as compact as possible).

Bug 593959 should fix attachment 323590 [details], at least on Linux. Haven't tested OSX/Windows
Depends on: 593959
It should block bug 675925, just like bug 666864 does.
oops, read bug 675925 as bug 674925

There is a very old patch in bug 851103 for this but it got stuck on lack of tests.
