Lightroom 5 bug in reordering images manually - Mac OS Only.

Symptoms:
In grid view if you drag a photo to change position and try to swap
with the image on immediate left the image you're dragging moves to the last place.

Step to reproduce:
1-Open lightroom
2-select a folder
3-click on one image
4-drag over the immediate left image
5-release click
6-the image moves to the end of the grid

versions affected: 5.0 -> 5.7
OS: Mac OS X only (10.9.x - possibly other versions too)

Happens to me too, LR 5.7, OS X 10.9.5 and 10.10.1.

You can avoid this by dropping the dragged image between the two images to its left (the border between them will be bolded black). The bug only happens when you drop the image on top of the image to its left.
