Dragging editor windows outside of main application [message #199722]

On a dual monitor, I want to keep Eclipse main window on one monitor and
drag an Editor window to the other monitor. Is it possible? This would be
a real nice feature.

Photoshop does this and I can edit two photographs on my two monitors.

I have found out that you can drag a perspective to the other monitor (or
select "New Window" from the window menu). This does satisfy my needs, but
the window opens with the menu and toolbars. Is is it possible to hide the
Menu?
