UX - Cannot drag project folder into tree-view

To reproduce:
Open Atom and clear any project folders or open files.
Open Finder and drag then drop a folder into the Atom tree-view.

Current result:
Project folder will not be added to tree-view.

Expected result:
Project folder would be added to tree-view.

Suggested change:
Allow project folders to be dragged into tree-view.

It is odd that you cannot add a project folder this way since the tree-view is where project folders are navigated. Instead, you can drag a folder into an editor pane, which is where individual files are edited.

I also find this odd. Definitely tried it a few times with frustration before realizing it couldn't be done.

I have this working locally (without an ondragover hint), the specs will build on the event-helpers changes being added in #604

Can we disable this feature? Thanks
