Four rebindable registry chords in the Tiles group move the focused
tile: it trades places with the neighbour the Alt+Shift+Arrow focus
chords pick (tileInDirection), through the same _reorderTiles path as
the header drag, and keeps the focus. Nothing at an edge.
They go through tileShortcutFor()/runTileShortcut() like the other
tile chords, so every xterm key handler swallows them while they
apply: only while the grid is open, a zoomed grid included (a no-op
there, so the keys never reach the CLI), and never in a text field
other than xterm's own textarea, where Ctrl+Shift+Arrows select by
word.
Ctrl+Shift+Arrows because every other two-modifier arrow chord is
taken: Ctrl+Alt switches workspaces (GNOME, Xfce, some Windows
graphics drivers), Ctrl+Alt+Shift moves a window to another workspace
(GNOME, Cinnamon, Xfce), Super belongs to the desktop, Alt is the
browser's back and forward, Alt+Shift focuses tiles. No browser,
GNOME, KDE, macOS or Claude Code default uses Ctrl+Shift+Arrows; it
costs a terminal editor's word selection inside a tile while the grid
is open.
The Help modal lists the chords and the header drag; the shortcut
overlay lists the registry. zh-CN entries for every new string.

Owner request: "give me the option to move the tiles around". A tile's
header (its free area, not the buttons or the rename input) is now a
native drag handle: dropped on another tile the two trade places, dropped
on an empty slot it moves there (the last cell; the tiles after it close
up). Escape or a drop anywhere else is the browser's own cancel and
moves nothing.
Every move goes through one path, _reorderTiles: the header drag, a
tab of a tiled session dropped on a tile or a slot, and (next commit)
the Move Tile chords. Nothing is remounted, reconnected or reloaded.
Divider sizes belong to the cells, so a moved tile takes its new
cell's size: each tile whose cell size changed fits once (one PTY
resize, #464) and every other tile is left alone, in place of the
debounced refit of every tile the swap used to schedule.
The drag reuses the tab drop targets (capture phase, stopped before
xterm), carries a type of its own and never text, and is not
draggedTabId, so neither a text field nor the tab strip takes it.
Moving is off while a tile is zoomed (draggable off, and a tab drag
of a tiled session onto the zoomed tile is refused too) and with a
single tile. The handle shows a grab cursor and says it drags in its
tooltip (zh-CN included); the dragged tile is dimmed and the target
highlighted.
