Research direction

The issue does not name files or tests. Start by locating the Grid row drag-and-drop handling and the context-menu behavior, then determine how column-specific reordering should coexist with scrolling and menu access. Done means rows can be reordered only from the selected column or columns while other columns remain usable for scrolling and context menus.
