Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 59354
make docked windows positionable outside OOos main window

If you grab a docked panel you can freely move it about inside the main OOo frame. The various gray boxes appear when it could be docked. But there is no way of causing it to float outside the main OOo frame. The only way to do this is to release the mouse outside a docking zone which causes the panel to float within the OOo frame window. The panel's title bar can then be grabbed and the panel moved outside the OOo frame. This should be acheivable in a single drag and drop action.
according to http://qa.openoffice.org/issue_handling/workflowcharts/RFE_issues_by_QA.sxd I reassign this issue to requirements and set the status to new
