You're right. I tried a number of ways to find it in Help, but couldn't.
Help was not helpful. It is mentioned in the PDF document "TweakGuides
Tweaking Companion for Windows Vista" (pages 131-132), which you can
download here:
http://www.tweakguides.com/TGTC.html
I haven't read it all (it's fairly large), but it does strike me as being
pretty thorough regarding all things Vista (I just did a search within the
document for "dragging", and a reference to showing content while "dragging
around windows" showed up right away in the list).
