In Windows while dragging a window there are also sticky edges. Therefore you
can easily snap windows on the edge without even looking.
This feature can also be seen from an accessibility point of view as people
with disabilities may find it difficult to aim for the edge of the screen. Or
they might find it impossible to use multiple hands thereby making it
impractical to use persisting KWin Scripts that add keyboard shortcuts for
window snapping.
As I would imagine it there should be a feature called 'Screen Barrier' or smth
where you can specify multiple behaviours while dragging a window or just
moving your mouse across screen edges. You can specify this to only be the case
for corners or the whole edge basically giving a slider how much of a
percentage your screen edges should be obstructed. There should also be a force
option where you can specify a threshold after which your cursor overcomes the
barrier.
This way you can have corners that you can quickly drag your mouse to to access
certain UI elements and at the same time have edges where you can easily snap
windows to by dragging them to the edge.
