Please add the ability to drag and drop layers between projects.  This is a feature of ArcGIS Desktop.  It is very helpful in a high volume/short time line environment.

You can already do this

That being said, there is a need for being able to drag things like layouts or maps to projects that don't already have a layout/map in them. If that's what you mean, I'd upvote it.

As @AlfredBaldenweck pointed out this is already possible.

It is also already possible to drag/drop maps/layouts into other projects that don't already have those:

What version did that come in, Kory?

I swear I couldn't do it yesterday, but today I can, so... odd.

Been in there a long time. Note that the drop target is important. You can't drop a map from one project onto the map of another project (i.e. you can't add a map to a map). You drop it into the catalog.
