Set Drag Mode block

As many of you know, Scratch 3.0 introduces a new block,

set drag mode [draggable v] :: sensing

Why is it a sensing block though? Wouldn't a movement block make more sense?

Dunno. But the Scratch team know more about it then any of us, so they probably know best.

I don't see why it would be a movement block. I think this block determines (Never seen it before) if the sprite is able to be moved or not. The block itself doesn't cause any movement.

Because it doesn't cause immediate movements. The way it works is very similar to ScratchJR's “Set speed” block, which is used to change movement speed, but the block itself doesn't move the sprite.
