Description Stephen 2016-09-24 13:19:37 UTC 
Under X, dragging a terminal tab to outside the gnome-terminal window area detaches it to a new window. Under Wayland this doesn't work.
Comment 1 Christian Persch 2016-09-24 14:14:18 UTC 
I think this was fixed by bug 763387.

(Note that DND tab detaching was disabled in gnome-terminal >= 3.20.3 due to it crashing the application.)
Comment 2 Stephen 2016-09-24 14:31:13 UTC 
Is that crash intermittent (or a recent regression)? I don't think I've ever had a tear-off crash up to 3.20.2 at least.

If it was fixed, will tab detaching be reenabled at some point ?

Of course.
Comment 5 Matthias Clasen 2016-09-28 18:12:18 UTC 
Since this was tab dnd works under wayland now, lets move this back, then
Comment 6 Christian Persch 2016-09-28 19:08:39 UTC 
Ok so this is fixed in gtk+, but disabled (for now) in g-t.
