Add 'Detach Terminal' action to tab context menu (835 bytes, patch)

Description Sébastien Wilmet 2016-06-20 12:37:02 UTC 
With gnome-terminal 3.20 on Fedora, when I do a right-click on a tab, there is no 'Detach tab' menu item. The action is only available from the main menu.

Adding the action to the right-click/context menu of the tab would be useful, since it's an action directly related to the tab.

If a patch is provided, would it be applied? Do you agree with the (small) feature request?
Comment 2 Sébastien Wilmet 2016-07-21 19:46:16 UTC 
For more context, I prefer to hide the menubar in gnome-terminal, to have more vertical space. But as a result the 'Detach tab' action is not easily available. (There is maybe a keyboard shortcut, but I don't often detach tabs, so I would not remember the keyboard shortcut anyway).
Comment 3 Christian Persch 2016-07-21 20:44:42 UTC 
Sure.
