Description

There's a really excellent feature for the Backpack wallet that lets the user "Pop Window", basically popping the Wallet UX out from either the extension display or the brave://wallet UI into a separate window.

I've been playing with this quite a bit, and it's really handy to have the entire wallet UX/UI as a separate window, instead of having to toggle to and from the extension panel, or to another tab among a sea of tabs in my window.

I haven't played with this with dapps yet, but suspect there may be some wins there. It almost treats the wallet UX as a separate app with this context, and feels very sidecar without the attachment.

Surfacing it here for feature request consideration. @jamesmudgett @husobee

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Install the backpack extension
  2. Click the account/avatar icon in upper right corner
  3. Select "Pop Window" menu option (has a CTRL+G shortcut)

Actual result:

brave-wallet-pop-window-04062023-enable

brave-wallet-pop-window-04062023-popped

Forgot to add another cool note about this feature.

When you Pop Window, the popped window gets it's own icon in the OS taskbar, separate from the primary browser icon. This makes it even easier to find the Wallet.
