I had not noticed that ..

I tried dragging so_tester.swf .. as in example posted .. in both IE6 and FF1.5

In both cases the movie does not reset to to "sunrise state" after being dragged.  
So no sign of this bug so far.

Perhaps because the relative position of the nested <div id="flashcontent">  is not 
being changed and it is the wrapper <div id="dragflash"> which is being dragged?

I don't know .. but I'll watch for this effect.  Thanks.
