System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.19041-SP0 64 Bits
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 465.89

Blender Version
Broken: version: 2.93.0, branch: master, commit date: 2021-06-02 11:21, hash: 84da05a8b8

Short description of error
The vertex snapping in the UV Editor works different than in the 3D Viewport. In the 3D Viewport you can move the vertex and if you get close to another vertex it snaps to it. In the UV Editor you cannot move the vertex and if you get close to another vertex it snaps to it. It should be either or not both, I prefer the way it works in the 3D Viewport(see attached screen capture).

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

Go to the UV Editing workspace
Create a cube or use the default one
Enable vertex snapping in the 3D Viewport and select any vertex of the cube
Try to move but keep a distance to other vertices, you are able to move the vertex without snapping
Move the vertex close to another vertex and it will snap
Select all faces of the cube
Go the UV Editor and enable vertex snapping
Select a vertex and try to move while keeping distance to another vertices, it will not move
Move the vertex close to another vertex and it will snap

Works the same way in 3.0, I agree that it should work like in the 3d viewport, unless there is a logic I don't know behind it. Using CTRL to snap works the same way, when pressing the key, the moving vertex freeze in place until the mouse hover over another vertex, then it snaps.

Can confirm the behavior, but (without having looked at code) this might be more of a feature request.
Will let #modeling module decide here.

It always worked like this. So it's not really a bug.
But it seems to be a valid feature. And it doesn't seem to be complicated to implement.
Investigating...
