Golden-layout: drag&drop between windows

[lstkz]

Is it possible to support dnd between browser windows?
Will that require major changes to the codebase?

Here you can see a demo https://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/dnd/basics/
Open 2 windows, and you can drag&drop A/B/C squares between them.

Really like this idea!
I imagine it would take quite a code change.
Would be good for _next_ version along with popups inside the window

We should improve plugin with a particular attention to new feature. One of the most important news is the 268 PR that allows to change position of tabs and enable auto-hide of panels.

Next step should be working on multi-window and multi-monitor support.

Good multi-window drag/drop would be really nice for DomTerm. It would be nice to be able to move a terminal pane in one top-level window to another to-level window.

It would also be nice to "drag to the desktop" which would create a new top-level window.

People are used to similar behavior from browser tabs.

I also wanted to mention: Check out the NetBeans IDE if you haven't already. It has a very nice multi-pane "window system" similar to GoldenLayout, but NetBeans also supports dragging to the desktop (creating a top-level window) or to other top-level windows.

Here is some info about html5 drag&drop, along with a demo.
