Description

**Mood:** 😊
**Category:** General

Regarding click+drag line numbers. When I start clicking on a line number, currently I have to move down my cursor without leaving the line number area, which is very hard. It'd be better if I could move my cursor anywhere, as long as I keep holding down the button, and the selection continues.

Research direction

Reproduce the behavior in the app at /chat using the reported macOS setup, then trace the line-number selection interaction. Done means a click-and-drag selection continues when the cursor leaves the line-number area while the button remains held.
