Public bug reported: Chromium used to allow you to drag a tab and either
a) drop it on the desktop to create a new chromium window b) drop it on a chromium window to add it to that window Neither option works now in either unity or KDE. In KDE it's particularly bad, as the being-dragged window sticks to the mouse cursor, making most mouse operations impossible.
