enhancement proposal: ability to move windows

[Igor Wojnicki]

I have a dual-head setup (NVidia TwinView) where the second screen is an
overhead projector. I would find it extremely useful if I could just drag
windows using the Workspace Switcher between my screens. This would help a lot
especially at times when the projector is blanked or switched off and I would
like to move some windows to be projected when switched on/unblanked.

For now windows can be dragged to different workspaces without altering they
relative position (within workspace). What I propose is to make it possible to
change the window position WITHIN the workspace by dragging it.
Such a functionality is present ie. in the fvwm workspace switcher (whatever
it's called).

I made a modification which implements the proposal (see the patch) and submitted it upstream. I'm reporting it here just in case if the upstream decides to dump it.

Thank you for your bug report, could you give the upstream bug reference too?
