Description

Expected Behavior

As a user I would like to be able to pull out a specific block in a code stack to make it easier to change my code. This should work as on MakeCode, where pressing ctrl/cmd allows you to drag out a single block.

Research direction

Start by comparing the requested interaction with the linked MakeCode editor, focusing on how ctrl/cmd-dragging separates one block from a stack. Trace the existing block-dragging and stack-handling entry points in scratch-blocks; done means a user can pull out a single block with the modifier key without disrupting the remaining stack.
