Currently, if you drag a tab from one window to another, all it does is open a new tab with the url of the currently loaded page of the tab you dragged. However, the expected behavior is to literally be dragging the tab to a new window - so all other information about the tab should remain intact, including browser history, form entries etc. Simply copying the session information over should work fine.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Browser the web with a tab
2.Open a new window
3.Drag tab to new window
Actual Results:  
Current url is loaded into a new tab

Expected Results:  
All session information is loaded into the new tab
