 Replying to [comment:6 cypherpunks]:
 > I tried switching to "Ubuntu 2D" during the log in and repeated the
 steps, but this time no DNS or HTTP request was made. I switched back to
 the normal Ubuntu desktop (unity) and now both DNS and HTTP request was
 made as soon as I begun dragging the image.

 Yep. I can confirm this is the case. I installed VirtualBox extensions (to
 get 3d support) and can verify that as soon as I drag a picture, the
 dns+http request bypasses Tor.
