I do want to do face dragging in the future but I'm waiting until I have a "move face" mechanism. Dragging is meant to be a quick way to do a Transform > Move, and moving a face is a somewhat different operation than extruding it, except for the special cases where the surrounding pieces are all at 90 degrees to each other.
In a CAD program usually to move a face means to extend the surrounding surfaces until they reintersect the newly positioned face, for example:
Extrude gives a much different kind of result, like this:
They're different operations but they happen to give the same results for certain kinds of objects like boxes.
