Feature Request: Add option to lock window/pane layout

There should be an option to lock the window (panel, pane, widget, whatever you want to call it) layout so that accidental click-and-drag actions do not move windows around.

The most common case, at least for me, is going up to close a tab on the editor and accidentally moving it somewhere else.

If someone shows me where to look, I might be able to patch in this feature. I'd probably just add a checkmark menu item to the View menu.

I agree, I myself messed the layout up by clicking and dragging too quickly in our input panes.

Adding comment so that I get notifications and so that I can find my issues/comments more easily.

I already had this worked out.

@ccordoba12 agrees on putting this option under the close current pane in the View menu? and adding this off by default?
