GHOST/Wayland: workaround inability to access window position

Wayland doesn't support accessing the position making functionality that
would map events to other windows fail, sometimes considering windows
overlapping when they weren't (as all window positions were zeroed).

Disable dragging between windows when accessing the window the position
isn't supported.
