I just came to the realization that there's no reason to prevent most popups from being moved.
In BeginPopupEx if we just remove the ImGuiWindowFlags_NoMove flag, popups can be moved.

Does anyone sees in their codebase, a side-effect, potential breakage or reason to not just remove this flag?

Thinking of cases such as:

The popup auto position but no reason to lock its position.

When the popup is filled with menu items and auto-sized there's typically little room to grab and move them, but I don't think it is something that people would really care about. Also, because child menu are positioned by their parent, you still cannot move a child menu (which also is to be expected).

This is being worked on in the color-picker branch, also see #346 discussion. It should be merged in Master within the week.

(EDIT Please post your color picker questions in the color picker thread. Also please use github attachment system for pictures and not imgur.)

I couldn't see an issue with removing the ImGuiWindowFlags_NoMove flags from popup, so committed it.
