Or for people who don't realize you can open _exactly_ two windows for
this in browser mode whenever you need them...

This isn't an either/or issue. If you want 2 windows to drag/drop in
browser mode, just open 2 windows. Works the same across
Windows/Mac/KDE/Gnome.
If you have a decent multitasking OS and window system that lets you
open as many instances as you want of whatever you want, why do people
still think that apps need to deal with that stuff themselves?
