I often want to move the titlebar partially of the desktop to fit certain 
windows. I also often need to move a window sideways almost out of the 
desktop.

Novices drag the titlebar. That's the only thing (if any) that should be 
protected. The menu move should not have any movement restriction at all.

That would be ideal. I'm fine with having the "proteced way" as the default 
as long as I can disable it!

Thanks a lot for your understanding and feedback.

Take care,
