Confirmed. For the record, this isn't actually a supported method of note entry and never actually worked, but obviously it shouldn't crash either :-). The crash is new to 2.3, and has to do with trying to layout the stem of a note that at this point has been given one. I assume it is related to the changes to stem alignment. I could prevent the crash easily enough by just checking for no stem before laying out the note, but in case the true cause is deeper, I'll let someone more familiar with that code take a look.
Drag & drop was never supported that I know of. It doesn't actually work in 2.1 or 2.2 unless you are very careful to drop right on top of an existing note or rest. Not sure that was ever intended. Also seems to work to rearrange notes within the drum palette, which is kind of cool but again I have no idea if that was ever actually intended.

We incorrectly create the chord when starting dragging. I want to suppress using drag&drop with drum palettes at all. Any thoughts?
Fixed in branch 2.3, commit 6c0bd3aff0
fix #273633: crash when drag&drop notes from drum palette
Did fix the crash introduced during the development of 2.3. Keep drag&drop since it has been here from 2.1 and maybe earlier.
Drag worked even in 2.0 (and 1.x didn't have that palette)
Even if currently master doesn't crash on this, the fix that went into 2.3 should go into master too, at least it won't harm there
Fixed in branch master, commit e65d9ce854
fix #273633: crash when drag&drop notes from drum palette
manually merge from 2.3. see 6c0bd3aff0ba91a4c790810d8d860ae78e022d22

It does work in 2.1 and back to at least 2.0. Indeed only when dropping onto a rest, but that's what I'd expect anyhow
Crash has been fixed, so let's keep the issue fixed.
To answer my own question: sure, you can rearrange palette with drag & drop, but it doesn't stick on save/load.
