elementary OS 8: Can't drag icons from the 'Applications' menu to the dock in 'Secure Session'
What Happened?
When I tried dragging an application from the app menu to the dock so I could pin it, it didn't work.
I'm using the official elementary OS 8 release that became available on November 26th. I have done all of the system updates.
Steps to Reproduce
- Signed into my account with the 'Secure Session' option
- Opened the 'Applications' menu
- Started dragging an app icon to the dock to pin it
- After the app menu box disappeared, the app icon I was dragging disappeared along with it
Expected Behavior
The usual behavior is that you would drag an app icon from the app menu to the dock and it would be pinned to it. This is the behavior present in the 'Classic Session' and elementary OS 7.1 Horus.

Main dev answer: Not priority, because x11 since default. Planned on the way to 8
Can confirm this is definitely a bug and only affects secure / wayland sessions in eos8
