Hi!

The panel and xfdesktop (which you refer to with your link) both use the
component garcon to display application menus. They share some of the code, but
e.g. the right-click behavior is not configurable in the panel's application
menu while it is with a hidden(!) property in xfdesktop.

The drag-and-drop functionality comes from garcon and has been there in Xfce
4.12 as well, so it's been around for more than 4 years:
https://git.xfce.org/xfce/garcon/tree/garcon-gtk/garcon-gtk-menu.c?h=xfce-4.12#n621

I'm not a huge fan of all those options, especially the hidden ones, because
they just tend to add code with very few people benefiting from them (because
yeah, hidden options are by definition not very discoverable...)
Maybe some of the other devs see it differently and are willing to push this
in. So I'll not object, but I'm also not convinced enough that many people need
this to push it myself.
