Currently, when dragging a tab in Firefox to detach it from the main window, the new window is only created and shown once you release the mouse button. I think that having the option to make it work like in chromium browsers(this being, so as soon as you begin dragging a tab, a live floating window with that tab should immediately appear) would be pretty usefull.
Comparison:
Benefits:
- Improved Usability: A live preview would make it easier to move tabs between windows or to a different position, as you could see in real time where the new window will appear. Would allow users to drop the tab exactly where they want it, especially useful in multi-monitor or workspace setups.
- Better experience: With immediate visual feedback, organizing your workspace becomes smoother.
Proposal:
Basically an option somewhere like in about:settings where you could choose between the current behavior and the one proposed.
PD: I've been looking but only thing i've found similar to this was this post from @Llanfair :
https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/chrome-style-tab-tearing/idi-p/6556
And it seems like some people didn't get idea a other noted that maybe it was a bug?But I haven't found any bug reports about it either. I'm not completly sure so here is my post. Let me now if this a bug instead. Thank you.
