Description Janet Blackquill 2022-04-19 17:11:27 UTC 
Dolphin refuses to let users drag a toolbar to the left/right of a window when it has an address bar on it, which is completely sensible: horizontal-only things don't make sense on a vertical toolbar.

However, Dolphin doesn't clearly communicate this to the user. When the user tries to drag a toolbar to an invalid place, it just silently doesn't do the thing and doesn't give any feedback at all.
