I'll have to try it on Linux at work tomorrow. I'm running 2.0.0.3 there as well. Maybe it was easier to implement in Windows? Windows is a little better about drag and drop program awareness.

I find that comes in handy when I'm going back and forth between a couple tabs. Also, I think that some pieces of the functionality from your feature request are already implemented (I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.3). I can click and drag a tab from one window to another. This opens the URL in the destination. It still has some problems though. For example, I have to open the destination window manually if it doesn't already exist. Also, I think that the destination window just opens the URL. It doesn't actually "move" the tab between windows, so any form fields or Ajax-stuff that you have done is lost. Kevin,
