Consider this. The proxy icon drag in Cocoa apps is immediate. The
Carbon proxy drag needs a delay, so the text dragging and proxy icon
dragging behaviors are exactly opposite between carbon and cocoa.
There is much inconsistency with text in carbon and cocoa throughout
the OS.

You can. You just need a slight delay before dragging, otherwise it
starts selecting. This is just how the Cocoa text system behaves
(it's different from the Carbon text services you're probably used
to). This is probably a bug, though... Is the Cocoa or the Carbon
functionality correct?
