Description

### What's the Problem?

Drag and dropping tabs into other windows currently requires dropping in specific regions and isn't very intuitive.

**Requirements**
- Allow dropping tab anywhere on the title bar (or window)

Research direction

Start by tracing the existing tab drag-and-drop handling for window and title-bar drop regions. Reproduce the current behavior, then verify that dropping anywhere on the title bar or window accepts the tab and preserves the existing cross-window behavior.
