Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/AppFlowy-IO/AppFlowy/issues/483

There is a delay to the column becoming draggable, which I assume is intentional to prevent accidental reordering of the grid. I think it might be useful to add a tooltip or something which lets users know that they have to hold to drag. I wonder if it might also be better to reduce the delay a bit. It seems to take about 1 second before the drag is possible, but perhaps this should only be 500ms.

@annieappflowy How about instead of holding to drag we add a reorder icon at the extreme right of the column heading cell and drag directly using it? We can also show a tooltip (say "Drag to reorder") while hovering on it.

@moksh-mahajan , love the idea of showing a tooltip as a hint for users. Can you draw something roughly to demonstrate your idea? I'm not sure about how the reordering icon would work.
