A tab from view can be dragged into the fast view area to be changed into a fast view. Before M2, it was possible to drag the fast view icon back to a tab group to turn the fast view back into a normal view. In M2, this doesn't happen: the cursor doesn't change to indicate that the view has been "picked up", and some weird view-like artifacts appear (see attached screenshot). The "Fast View" checkbox on the icon's context menu still works, however.
