Description

@Josh65-2201

What's the Problem?

Drag and dropping tabs into other windows currently requires dropping in specific regions and isn't very intuitive.

Requirements

  • Allow dropping tab anywhere on the title bar (or window)

    I’m encountering difficulties accessing the drop event within the drag area. It appears that the control over drag regions is somewhat limited. Fyi @0x5bfa

    Maybe it's related to what TRUINGLol said in #3808?
