Comment 5 for bug 1776736

In the xul client (3.0) it's possible to **drag** fields from one record to another when tiled side-by-side both in flat text mode. I've been using this to add annotations, subjects, ISBNs or contents notes when merging so the kept record has the info of both records combined.
With the advent of baskets merging, or simply tiling, to a few records can become even easier so I'd definitely welcome improving flat text editing along with the improvements in the merging development.

Now-- if only the merged record had that red bar signally it's been deleted. bug #1746611.
