[Feature Request] Expanding on #91 to allow dragging the root node from the TabFern GUI panel to an external app #293

I'm requesting a feature that is native to the closed source Tabs Outliner and is one I use all the time. It is an expansion of Issue #91 I would like to left-click and drag the top-level "node" or top hierarchy of a set of sub-tabs out of the TabFern GUI panel into an external application. More specifically I would like to drag the top-level "node" into a Word or OneNote document. The "dropped" set of tabs show in the external application as a list of webpage titles with embedded links without showing visible URL addresses. For reference: This native feature of Tabs Outliner is also achievable by highlighting a OneTab group list and either cut and pasting or drag and dropping into an external application. Either highlighting and copying or drag and dropping a TabFern GUI panel tab list (with imbedded URLs) is fine. Whichever is easier to code . Other than this missing feature, the TabFern extension is brilliant!

Thanks for using TF and for the encouragement! Please spread the word :) .

Interesting idea --- I didn't know you could drag from an extension to an outside application!
