No, you seem to have underestimated the extent of my problem. My brakes are always grabbing,
even when I'm moving. After about 5 minutes of driving they heat up to the point where they
squeal whenever I touch the brakes (and yes, I paid extra for the ceramic pads that don't squeal).

I realize the calipers operate in the way you describe, however, in the rear there is also
a mechanical limiter as to how far back they can go (although it may not always retract to
that point). There is no such limiter that I can find on the front.
