Description
Hi,
Currently when user clicks on object properties, window opens in modal. Maximizing the modal window is not available, so the user can only resize it by dragging the window's border. It's hard to work with database function/procedure code when editor area is not big enough.
Is it possible to add the ability to dock modal windows to the main program window as the next tab, like a 'Query Tool' for example? (Of course as a setting in pgAdmin preferences)
This feature will improve working with code in pgAdmin

Research direction
Start by reviewing pgAdmin's object-properties modal workflow and the existing Query Tool tab behavior described in the issue. Determine how a preference could control docking, then define completion as opening database function and procedure editors as tabs in the main window with a usable larger editing area.
