We have an application where we have several tabs in an UltraDockManager set up as tabs. When the user toggles the docked state (by double-clicking a tab) and floats a pane, it'd be nice to have to ability for them to move the pane to a second monitor and arrange it how they'd like. It'd be helpful if there was some window snapping to (1) snap to the edges of the desktop on the second monitor, and/or (2) snap to other panes on the second monitor.
Is anything like this possible? Would have a second window + dock manager be a viable option? Can you even drag panes between two different dock managers?

Dragging panes between two different dock managers/across multiple monitors has been determined to be a new product idea.
