you said you couldn’t use that later on with AE but you CAN:
(sorry if this is too obvious)
after youv’e created a drop shadow (for example)
PS adds two lines below the layer (“effects” and below that “Drop Shadow”) , right click on either of them and choose “Create Layer” (3rd from the bottom) – it is now a standalone layer u can use in AE, or if you want you can merge the layer with the text itself.

again hope i’m not stating the obvious

It's a great feature. I came in terms with it the first time by just reading what it says on the bar at the top. Look, it reads "Click and drag to reposition the effect."! Correct, it's hardly noticeable, but it's there to inform us... Thanks, Aharon! Yup! It’s a great feature. I came in terms with it the first time by just reading what it says on the bar at the top.
