Unlike default alt-tab behavior that drag and drop things between tabs is possible, with CoverflowAltTab it does not work.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start dragging something (hold down the mouse)
  2. Press Alt+Tab as many times as requried to switch to another window
  3. Release the mouse to drop the file / thing you grabbed

Expected behavior (as without the extension):

You drag between both windows.

This is the only reason i didn't use this extension in years. It's awesome.

Tried to have a short look at it. Looks like the extension heavily depends on taking focus on the switcher itself, by calling imports.ui.main.pushModal. Problem is, that fails if you are drag and dropping.
I tried bypassing that, but I only got my extension to crash on me, taking gnome with it 😭.
I'll need help on this one, I onestly have no clue on what to do.

I didn't even know the default can drop files. Now I'm sad.
