I’m a new user of Inkscape .92 but very long time graphics user (pixel, vector, 3D) and would be a better user if the UI was more customizable and so suggest these possibilities for change, or at least user options:
Ability to move tool panel from being stuck at left edge to floating so we can put it where most useable. In all my programs I keep it near right edge of main screen.
- Indeed, that's not possible currently. You can make a feature request at https://inkscape.org/report .
Ability to move toolbars on top…monitor screen wide enough to have both toolbars on one row instead of 2 rows
- You could probably do that already by moving the items from the tool box file into the file for the commands bar, and then hiding the tool box, and setting the view to 'Standard'.
Allow for use of color palette to be floating… and able to roll-up to a simple panel row; maybe even on toolbar row with dropdown arrow click
- This one exists, check out View > Swatches.
Probably most important would be ability to drag any panel (or toolbar that changes into a panel) onto a second monitor. I normally use main monitor for workspace and tool panel and remaining tools/panels/etc. on the second monitor.
- This should be working with floating dialogs. You can even combine multiple of them into a larger dialog. However, I think in Inkscape 1.0, there's a problem with saving the layout from one session in Inkscape to another.
All of above lends toward better efficiency and full screen use of workspace for artboards.
- Have you checked the options for hiding dialogs and toggling full screen?
You can also try the option to duplicate the current window. It's not perfect, but I think one can hide things in one window, and show them in another one.

Thankfully I can make the program window wide enough to let part of it on second monitor in default mode now.
