Just to add a +1.  I noticed this a few weeks ago but thought it was
something I did.  I don't use floating groups much so didn't raise the
issue earlier.

Looking at the code for floating groups (which does not appear to have
changed since June), it seems that one should use "super" plus the mouse
to move windows.  My keyboard doesn't have a super key (none of the
windows keys) so I thought I would change the behaviour to using the Alt
key by

(setf *float-window-modifier* :alt)

but to no avail.
