KDE here. I don't use Chrome so I only just fired it up (completely 
clean "install") and have the same behaviour.

As to what's causing it I can only guess but I did notice that when I 
try to move a tab - even on a single tab window - my mouse pointer jumps 
to the title bar area above it which presumably causes the window 
manager to pick up the "click & hold" gesture and leads to the whole 
window moving about.

However, this only seems to be happening when using the "System titlebar 
and borders". If you right click on the tab area (not on the tab itself) 
and untick said option the issue will disappear. At least it does on my 
machine and I can move tabs about as normal.
