When a program is not open, its icon may be dragged from the membar to a target.
When a program is open, the program may be dragged onto a target. However,
dragging the icon from the membar produces a dialog that states "the program is
already open".
I think dragging an icon from the membar for a program that is already open
should select the programs target *and* bring the program to the foreground.
Rationale:
A user's response to the "program already open" dialog is *always* the same:
1. Find program window or click membar icon to bring to foreground.
2. Drag program to target.
In all cases when a user drags a member icon to a target they have the
intention of targeting an item with that program.
As such, since the user's intentions are clear and since their response to the
error is always the same, it would be prudent to have the UI perform the
intended action without requiring the user to go through an unnecessary and
redundant dialog step.
In other words: It's never the case that the user drags an icon from the membar
and intends to do anything other than target the item they dragged to. The
intermediate inconvenience of a dialog is unnecessary.
