Well here's one I posted to the Improve list a while back (and which 
Troy confirmed for me)

Try the following:

Rev 2.5

Create a new stack called "test"
save stack
add a substack called "test1"
In message box: drawer stack "test1" at left of stack "test"
The drawer stack will appear.  Click on the drag resize area on the 
drawer and drag it in, until the drawer is almost closed, i.e. up 
against the left edge of stack "test".  You may need to resize the 
drawer a couple of times to see this happen.
The drawer will unattach itself from the "test" stack and appear as a 
modal window with drawer appearance (no title, rounded borders).  Move 
stack "test", stack "test1" will move in sync.

Is this expected behavour with drawers?

I've also noticed sometimes when resizing a drawer that the stack 
sometimes closes when you release the mouse.  To see example of what I 
mean type "close stack "test1"
