Description
Looks to me like the behaviour or of the dragger tool is working in euler angles, not quaternions. As is the vector.js has only euler rotation modes.
Is it planned to add this or even a known issue?
for an example of versor dragging see this
https://observablehq.com/@d3/versor-dragging
and the comparison here:

Maybe have a look if this versor library seems like a good dependency to add:

Research direction
Start by inspecting the dragger tool and vector.js, then compare their rotation behavior with the linked D3 versor-dragging examples. Determine the expected quaternion-based interaction and whether the versor library is suitable; the work is done when the desired behavior and implementation scope are established and verified against those examples.
