This is not the problem. If you want to simulate a drag, you need to have
the pointer where the drag takes place. But at the same time you're touching
the touchscreen and thus moving the pointer under your finger. With clicking
this is not a problem, because the pointer is moved to the place where you
wanted to click just for a moment.
