So, the subject.

Now, when I drag by mistake the free area of the UI (menubar, tabbar or the toolbars, the whole window of firefox moves and this is confusing and annoying. How to disable this behaviour?

Isisombululo esikhethiwe

OK, I have an answer now, so will answer my own question. :)

The problem is not actually in Firefox, but in the gtk 3.0 wrong settings. The fix is to add to the file "~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css" following lines:

   menubar, .menubar {
     -GtkWidget-window-dragging: false;
   }

If the file does not exists, simply create it. After adding these lines and restarting Firefox everithing should be ok.
