At any time, in and out of layout editing:

Shortcut What it does
dragging a tab takes the tab to another space’s strip, to a space’s edge or to the room’s edge
dragging the empty part of the tab strip takes the whole space: next to another space’s tabs, to its edge or to the room’s edge
Ctrl or Alt when dropping leaves a copy of the tab (for a whole space, of the tab in view) at the target
Esc during a drag gives up the drag
Esc leaves layout editing
