GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 400363
Can't drag a tab to the desktop to start a new window
Last modified: 2011-07-30 08:47:34 UTC
In most Gnome applications that use tabs (eg Gedit, Gaim), dragging a tab to the desktop creates a new window for that tab.
It was disabled because of a mozilla bug, see bug 303922. The upstream bug is https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=296002 .
It would be also quite useful to be able to drag a tab into an already existing epiphany window. I seem to remember something similar from galeon.
How about doin this with WebKit backend? =D
This basically works in 2.28.0 (webkit) already (despite some issues like Bug 596397)
This works on 2.31.4, the related bug is already fixed.
Works in 3.0; there's a crash in master though, but unrelated.
