This never happens here so it might be platform specific.  Does modeline
text get highlighted immediately when the mouse hovers over it?  Or do
you mean that Emacs tries to figure out whether you really want to drag
the modeline and not do something else?  Does the behavior differ
according to the modeline text portion displayed at the mouse position?
