Description simon80 2007-09-24 20:32:33 UTC 
Support for dropping folders onto buttons in the button bar should be implemented.  Currently there is sometimes no place to drag onto when trying to move a folder into the current folder being displayed in a browser window that is using list view, if that folder is full of other folders.  Implementing this would provide a safe place to drag folders onto in this case.

It would also be very useful to drag items to the parent folder, for example.
Comment 2 Paisa Seeluangsawat 2008-07-04 05:08:12 UTC 
I confirm that this happens.  I also confirm that having no place to drop is indeed annoying.
