I can confirm the same thing is happening on my device. I had to revert back to 1.38.119. I cannot organize tabs or drag and drop text onto the tab bar to initiate search.
I can also confirm, this is happening to me on version 1.39.111 Chromium: 102.0.5005.61 (Official Build) (64-bit), running on Manjaro with kernel 5.15.41-1-MANJARO and i3 window manager.
I also confirm that that has happened earlier this year already and was fixed around 2 months ago.
