Summary

0001805: In 6690 grabbing works differently for system windows than for other morphs. Why the limitation?

Description

Notice this contrast.

Get a triangle. Bring up the halo. Click over the grab button.
After you have press/released the button the triangle and halos are grabbed in the hand. They can be moved with the (while the mouse is up).
A second press/release drops the triangle back into the world.

Try the same thing with a system window. Something different happens.
Press/release seems to grab the window for an instant (at least the drop shadow appears). But a short while later the shadow disappears and the window is stuck in the world.

The only way to move a system window seems to be to drag (with mouse pressed) the grab halo or the brown move halo.

Why does this work differently than for the triangle?

Additional Information

There also seems to be no area on the system window that allows it to be grabbed into the hand. The all behave in the pickup but drop immediatly way I described for the grab handle.

SystemWindows is ripe for a refactoring.
