How can I make the detaching of tabs into a new window when tags are dragged less sensitive, and/or turn it off?

I frequently have the problem of accidentally detaching tabs when I am trying to drag them left and right to reorder them. The interface seems more sensitive than I would like. The unwanted detaching of tabs happens to me many times a day and is jarring and causes me to lose a lot of time trying to put the tabs back. I would like the interface to be less sensitive, i.e. to make me drag it much farther up or down in order to detach the tab. If the feature to fine-tune the sensitivity of the tab-break-off is not implemented, I want the ability to turn it off, so that I can reorder tabs by dragging them left and right without having to worry about them detaching.

I searched and found an 8-year-old request from another user for the same thing, and it had been closed, and linking the user to third-party extensions adding this functionality. However, the extensions were not monitored by Mozilla for security.

This was a non-solution to me. I want this solution either to be built-into the browser, or to be offered in an extension that is monitored for security by the official team.

There is a pref in about:config to disable tear-off and prevent moving the file accidentally to a new window.

  • browser.tabs.allowTabDetach => false
