<p>Just thinking aloud:</p>
<p>At the moment, there are three different time sources used in the win32 implementation:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>Time self millisecondClockValue</code> based on <code>#utcMicrosecondClock</code> which counts since from 1901.</li>
<li><code>Time eventMillisecondClock</code> based on <code>ioMSecs()</code> which counts since system start. (used for DnD events)</li>
<li><code>MSG>>time</code> (used for most events)</li>
<li><code>GetMessageTime()</code> (used for mouse events, too, but only for checking time deltas)</li>
</ul>
<p>I just validated my assumption that <code>GetMessageTime()</code> returns values similar to <code>MSG>>time</code>, deviation could only result from a long event processing time on the VM side. As regular events are not recorded by the VM during DnD, this problem does not seem to be relevant, so I will patch <code>recordDragDropEvent()</code> to use <code>GetMessageTime()</code> now, too.</p>
