In the KDE Control Center (module Peripherals->Mouse, tab Advanced) you can 
specify both the drag start time and the drag start distance. You may want 
to increase both (the time can be increased up to two seconds, and the 
distance to twenty pixels). If these two settings do not have an effect, 
this should be fixed as then it is a bug.

By the way: Which version of KDE are you using and where did you find these 
draggable menu items? I wanted to test the settings, but I did not find 
draggable menu items.
