User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.11) Gecko/20101012 Firefox/3.6.11 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.11) Gecko/20101012 Firefox/3.6.11 Using a dual-screen setup, I try to drag a tab from the tab area to the other screen. Counter-intuitively, the new browser window that "pops out" with the tab, appears on top of the old browser window (in the original screen), rather than in the new screen which I dragged the tab to. It would be much more sensible if the new browser window opened up in the screen to which I dragged it to. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have two screens hooked up to a machine, and set the display mode to "extend desktop" in the Windows display settings. 2. Open more than one tab. 3. Drag one of the open tabs from the tab bar to the other screen. Actual Results: A new browser window appears, in the original screen, rather than in the target screen. Expected Results: I would expect that the new browser window would appear in the screen to which I dragged the tab to.
