Drag-n-Drop does not work in EFM

Description

EFL/E from git on FreeBSD 11.3 (Xorg).
When I try to drag a file - EFM just passes into file name modification mode.
Showing files on desktop is disabled (too many files there).
DnD works fine with another file managers.

It seems that this is a problem of profile.
I removed ~/e. and ~/.elementary directories and started E 'from scratch' - DnD was working correctly after this. When I put back my profiles - it does not work anymore.
It is NOT a problem of theme - reverting to the default one does not solve the problem.
My profiles are complex (mostly .e). How can I debug it? What profile parameters could affect the DnD behavior?

+1 here too Drag-n-Drop does not seem to work while more and more web browser features depend on this :-)
