STR:
1. Open multiple tabs in a window. Actually, you don't even need multiple ones.
2. Drag a tab out of the window to an empty spot on your display.

The thumbnail of the page floats back to the original location of the tab, communicating that the drag was unsuccessful. However, it was successful: the tab moves to its own window. We should fire the animation only if something goes wrong. This has been broken for years and years, but I don't see an open bug about it.

Not only is it confusing and misleading, but it delays the opening of the new window for a second while the animation plays.

This has been broken for years and years, so start wide if you try to bisect it. Oddly, I don't see an existing bug about it.
