Is Drag and drop of text a known problem with IE8 under Windows 7 that will be fixed soon? At the moment dragged text from low integrity (protected mode) IE8 can't be dropped on a medium or high integrity target. At least on Vista, IE8 does make the leap to medium integrity possible after responding to a popup prompt to confirm the operation (for the next time it is attempted), although drag to high integrity hasn't been observed to function. This issue breaks intended use of our products which assume general liberty in dragging text from most other applications.
