Hello Michael,
It seems that you are talking about dragging around windows in the Pager
with the middle mouse button, whereas I'm talking about the *single*
middle click on the pager which currently is the same as a short drag.
That is the behaviour I'd like to see changed / changeable (thanks Sasha).
Incidentally, for the situation you're describing, I have set the feel file
so that a middle-drag anywhere on the bottom bar moves the window:
Mouse 2 FS A Move
In the rare cases where even the bottom bar is invisible, I have the "Window"
menu appear with a middle-click on the root window and I can select Move from
there.
