Summary:

If a user performs a drag from an application (ex: Finder or Safari), and performs a 4-finger full-screen-app swipe before the drag times out, the drag image may remain stuck on the screen

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable 3 finger drag (optional) and 4 finger left-right swipe in Trackpad Preferences
2. Open a Terminal window in fullscreen (or any other application)
3. In Safari, 3-finger drag to the left on an image (Click-drag works too)
4. Release your fingers and quickly do a 4-finger drag to the left.
5. Release your fingers.

Expected Results:
Switching spaces acts as a mouse-up or something similar so that the image drag is correctly cancelled.

Actual Results:
The image is stuck on the screen even after releasing and clicking, as long as you are in a different fullscreen app.

Regression:
This appears to be a new issue introduced in OS X 10.7.
