You shouldn't have to do anything for this to work (AbstractEditPart already
returns a DragEditPartsTracker in its getDragTracker() method).
My first guess is that you don't have a proper tool activated at that time.
Is the PanningSelectionTool your default tool? What should be happening is
that the event dispatcher should be forwarding the mouse down to the
SelectionTool (#mouseDown()), which in turn should be forwarding it to the
DragEditPartsTracker (#mousedown()) which selects the editpart you clicked
on in its handleButtonDown() method.
What happens when you just click on a previously unselected editpart and
start dragging? The part doesn't get selected?

I am using SelectionTool, not PanningSelectionTool. I revisited this
today and figured out the problem. I have a SWT control outside of GEF
which always has focus. If it loses focus, it steals it back. Anyway,
handleFocusLost() in SelectionTool was getting called during the
selection+drag process, which set the drag tracker to null... so by the
time mouseDrag was called in SelectionTool, I no longer had a valid drag
tracker. I fixed the problem by overriding handleFocusLost() to do nothing.
