Is it possible to treat a GBrowser tab in the same manner as any source file tab, rather than attached to the GBrowser Tool UI? #285

More of a query than an issue (if Discussions were enabled for this project I would have used that instead).

Is there a way to open a tab as if it were an Editor panel? By that I mean instead of the tab being a child of a docked Tool, can a tab just be like any other tab and moved across the JetBrains UI like any other tab? All the GBrowser tabs seem to be attached to the top-level GBrowser view and can't be moved out of there.

I like to tile my open files in an ad-hoc fashion that suits my workflow, and to be able to have a few different sites open in different parts of my UI would help a lot. I know I can split the GBrowser tool view to open multiple tabs at once, but they are still stuck "together" in the GBrowser Tool view.

E.g. I can't drag-and-drop a GBrowser tab over, say, a Java source code tab and have it split that into Java + GBrowser. I can only split other GBrowser tabs. In contrast, as an example, the PDF Viewer plugin does allow this.
