<p>Chrome "solves" this by simply falling apart at the seams if there are too many tabs in a window.</p>

<p>We can arrange that Geany falls apart at the seams too if you like, but I suspect all the tabs will fall out the holes  <g-emoji class="g-emoji" alias="grin" fallback-src="https://assets-cdn.github.com/images/icons/emoji/unicode/1f601.png">😁</g-emoji></p>
<p>Please do not do whatever it is that you did to make Github fall apart at the seams <g-emoji class="g-emoji" alias="grin" fallback-src="https://assets-cdn.github.com/images/icons/emoji/unicode/1f601.png">😁</g-emoji> with some of your text, dunno what you are saying there. (Check encoding?)</p>
<p>GTK supports drag and drop of tabs, it just needs somebody to code it, but note that there is a fair bit of stuff hidden behind a tab that you have to handle, perhaps by only transferring the file path and re-opening it in the new instance.  It would have to be saved in the old instance too.</p>
<p>You are aware you can already drag text between instances?</p>
