Well, Nautilus got the ability to detach window tabs from their parents into a new window.
I tried several approaches to implement this for nemo (which still has the extra pane and pane management in general), but the best way seemed to adapt the way nautilus does it.
However, this patch even makes it possible to drop a tab onto an existing window's tab bar (tab bar has to been shown for this to work, the cursor will show a little arrow)
With this patch, tab management in nemo works the same way as in other GTK applications, e.g. gedit.

I think it would be cool to show all windows' tab bars when a tab drag and drop action is initiated. That would make it possible to drag a tab into a window with only one open tab (whose tab bar is normally hidden).
However, currently I don't know how to properly send a signal to every NemoNotebook available.
