Actual Behavior

When the column header is dragged outside the grid container, the drag operation gets stuck — the header can no longer be moved. Once the mouse button is released, the column returns to its original position.

Expected Behavior

Dragging a column header outside the grid container should either:

  • allow continued dragging and reordering when the mouse re-enters the grid area, or
  • cancel the drag operation gracefully without freezing the UI.
