draggable broken on inline elements in webkit browsers

[sebbacon]

On inline elements in Chrome and Safari, the element is moved across the page at about twice the speed of the drag event. Example:

 <script type="text/javascript">
  $(function() {
	$(".draggable").draggable();
  });
 </script>

 <span class="draggable" class="ui-widget-content">
  I move at twice the speed of the drag
 </span>

 <div class="draggable" class="ui-widget-content">
  I work correctly
 </div>

Wow, thats weird. There seem to be a lot of those with the latest Safari and Chrome version. Go Webkit, go...

This bug produces not just double-speed dragging, but weird trailing effects in the current release version of Safari, but not Chrome. It's specifically display:inline that causes it. See: ​http://sancus.off.net/safari_test.html (drag downwards)

This problem doesn't exist if the element is absolutely positioned.
