Drag-and-drop windows outside the browser.

Suggested by IK2XRW, Alex.
This is a real piece of work. Browser security stops a normal HTML element from being dragged outside the browser window — to detach a popout to a separate desktop window, YWC would need to use the window.open() API to spawn a second browser window that shares state with the first via SignalR. Possible but a big architectural change. If I can give the spectrum panels more room first (since they're the biggest screen-real-estate consumers) that may get you most of the way without the detach work. Lower priority but on the list.

Additional concrete use case from Thomas OZ1JTE via groups.io (2026-07-06), reinforcing this ask:

Thomas would like the S-meter (and other meters) enlargeable to roughly 25–50% of screen size for readability. Browser zoom doesn't work well because the top menu bar scales too and eats screen space. He tried opening the meter in a new browser tab, but the needle doesn't update there (meter telemetry doesn't currently feed multiple open windows/tabs simultaneously). He's asking for a "Pop Out" button matching the existing Memory Editor pop-out pattern, so a meter could be popped into its own (much larger) window.

Same underlying architectural constraint as the rest of this issue (window.open() + shared SignalR state) — just another concrete consumer to factor in when this gets picked up, and a good stress-test of the "give the spectrum panel more room first" mitigation, since large-meter and large-spectrum needs may conflict for screen space.
