Interesting.

Can you use middle mouse button to move the viewport while
simultaneously dragging a flag by holding left mouse button?

(I can't try this myself as I only have two mouse buttons and hence
get the effect of middle mouse button by using left and right buttons
simultaneously.)

Anyway, a laptop is nice.  You probably can't play glob2 while curled
up in bed with your computer in your lap.  :-)

Maybe only do that while dragging.  I think I can see problems if the
scroll regions were bigger when not dragging: every time you moved the
mouse to the right panel control area some scrolling might occur as
the mouse moved through/into the scroll region.  But it would be okay
to have bigger scroll regions while holding left mouse button to drag
a flag.
