If there'a a visible title label, that's obviously safe for grabbing. Firefox is probably doing it wrong by not leaving some visible space for users to grab at

  > Firefox is probably doing it wrong Up to a point -- although Mozilla added vertical tabs about a year ago, it's pretty clear nobody uses them, same as nobody left at Microsoft is competent enough at customising a Windows desktop to know how to use vertical taskbars, so they removed that option from Win11. But saying that, although I do not like GNOME, I review the new version every 6 months, so I do try it. I find the same problem with GNOME CSD apps. It is not confined to the problem of moving windows. The GNOME developers are clearly obsessed with gestures -- even the welcome tour contains instructions on trackpad gestures, and my machines have the trackpads disabled. I use mice, because I prefer them. With a mouse on Linux, the middle-button has 4 main functions: 1. Open web links in a new background tab. 2. Middle-click the title bar to push the window behind other windows. 3. Middle-click in text to insert the currently-selected text at the cursor. 4. Close browser tab. I do these things hundreds of times a day. Literally, no hyperbole. GNOME has removed functions #2 and #3. From this it seems apparent to me that the GNOME developers do not really know how to use mice effectively, and mainly use laptops with trackpads.
