Super weird drag and drop/mouseMove/mouseRelease issue

[Geoff Canyon]

Just did another test, and it's literally enough to do this:

on mouseMove
   if the optionkey is down
   then set the hScrollbar of me to false
   else  set the hScrollbar of me to true
   if amDragging then dispatch "trackMovement" to this cd of stack
"revDragExample"
end mouseMove

and hold down the option key while dragging through the forbidden zone.
