Stop UI panels from getting locked together

If I drag two UI panels (areas?) too close together, so the edges line up, they'll get locked/synced together. And then they'll move together instead of separately.

This happens by accident more often than I'd like to admit, and I want to cry everytime happens.

Please, I am begging you on my knees, add an option to completely disable this behavior or at least a quick de-sync button or something.

Here are some examples of other people sharing my suffering:

And here's an 11 year old bug report where people felt a detach function would be useful:
