Description
This is a minor thing but can be puzzling to some. Unexperienced users can inadvertently drag and drop an image file on a Gnome panel, which will set it as background, and it may be hard for them to find where to disable it.
Since changing the background of panels is not a frequent operation, this binding should be disabled by default. (Setting up the background in properties tab is enough.)

This is not an Ubuntu issue, but a Gnome one.
I suggest you take it up with the Gnome team.

It's not a hard thing to change in the usual patches Ubuntu puts on most of their software, and I can easily see how it could affect users who aren't familiar with the concept that you *can* give a panel a background image. +1

It should not be "disabled by default". There should be no option at all for this, but instead, it should always allow the action but ask confirmation before actually doing anything.
