It's being most useful, in particular when working on the laptop:
the geographic display was too small if the legend was docked.

The only thing that I would add is the ability to send the undocked
panel to another workspace (I get no menu at right button click). It's 
not a big problem, because currently sending the main window to another 
panel is possible.

Thanks!

Agus
