I've put in a request. I'll write back when I've received and returned
the form.

It does indeed, and I added a line to check for frames.

Done and done.

Good eye. Upon testing it out, it does seem to be the case that the
event's end position will always reflect the originally selected
frame. I'll reword my commentary to reflect that.

That said, I don't *think* it's ever possible in practice to change the
selected frame in the middle of a drag event through user interaction
alone -- either implicitly or by a keypress bound to `other-frame'. I'm
basing this on having just tried it in several window systems on both OS
X and BSD, including with focus-follows-mouse behavior enabled (and with
the corresponding Emacs variable turned on). I was only able to test it
by means of an event-reading loop which programmatically called
`other-frame' after every down-mouse event.

Come to think of it, this is wrong either way, because the implication
of "the frame with input focus" is the frame with input focus at the
time of evaluation, whereas the position list reflects the state at the
time it was generated.

How about: "If @var{position} represents a location outside the frame
where the event was initiated, [...]"

I haven't changed these lines except for taking them out of a
now-superfluous let*, but I agree that they look wrong. (Technically
`window' is either the window from the position list or nil. If it is
nil, though, `window-buffer' does return the buffer of the selected
window. The calculation should be made w/r/t the selected window of the
position list's frame, so I'll make that change.)

This one looks like a major change because of all the diffed lines, but
that's just due to adding an extra layer of indentation. The only
semantic change is wrapping the `track-mouse' form in an `unwind-protect'.

Here's the revised patch.
