Drag and Drop firewall rules causes corruption

Description
As per forum issue http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,28037.0.html - re-ordering of the firewalls using drag-and-drop causes the rules to disappear/corrupted or duplicated.
I only see certain rules disappear when I try to move them around. It is simple to replicate by just creating a new rule and try drag it above an existing rule.
The odd thing is I also tested on IE8 and the same thing happened - so it doesn't appear to be a webkit issue.
Forgot to add that i tested with:
Chrome for Mac v5.0.375.127
Chrome for Windows7 v5.0.375.127 and IE8 v8.0.7600.16385
Likewise with Chrome for Linux v5.0.375.127. Seems fine in IceWeasel 3.0.6.
- Target version set to 2.0
- Affected Version set to 2.0
I am having trouble replicating this problem in Chrome on Mac. Can someone else confirm?
I've had numerous reports of it in the past two months from talking to people. Click and drag around and you'll eventually get rules disappearing or numerous duplicates.
It is possible this is not a browser-specific issue, but actually caused by not handling floating rules correctly. Do you have any floating rules that reference the interface on which you were rearranging rules with drag-and-drop?
On one system where I personally encountered the duplicate (about 8 times duplicated) rules issue, there are no floating rules. I'm not sure about the other instances of the problem though.
No this was all specific to the lan interface as I was testing on that. I didn't try setting up floating rules to see if there was a problem there.
However I have updated to the latest snapshot (Wed Nov 10 10:44:38 EST 2010) and I can't replicate the original problem.
I have, since the issue was logged, updated Chrome to v7.0.517.41 on both os x and windows and they both work. Safari v5.0.2 on both os x and windows also works.
Cant test with IE8 since i was a bit daft and upgraded it to IE9 beta which doesn't display the menu unless I turn on compatibility mode. If i do that I can't drag and drop anything - it just doesn't respond.
So I can reliably say I can't reproduce the issue.
I have just tested the floating rules and that allows allows me to drag the rules but they stay in their original position. So Erik I assume your fix will sort that problem out. Will test that.

I can't reproduce this in IE8 with the steps you mentioned, though I didn't try it there before making the changes. I think it should be fixed now, though.
