Problem

I'm so sick of mistakenly pulling my Chrome tabs out of the tab list when i click on it, and having it open in a new window. I'm always pulling them off, then having to drop them back. Does anyone know of a way to disable this 'feature' of Chrome?

Fix for: Disable ability to pull a tab off of Chrome

Low Risk

The only time I accidentally peel off a tab is when I am trying to reorder tabs in a window with multiple tabs open. Yes, it is annoying and there should be a way to turn that off. A solution to this: use keyboard shortcuts rather than drag and drop to move tabs. For example: Move tab left: Ctrl Shift Page Up Move tab right: Ctrl Shift Page Down
