Files: drag&drop target is to small

[lidel]

Problem

Right now, only the file list seems to be the drop target, which makes it not only a chore to aim, but impossible to drag-and-drop into an empty directory, as the file dropped on .. (the only item in empty directory) gets added to parent directory:

Solution Ideas

• the whole viewport should be the drop target
  • Ideally, even if user is not on Files screen
• unless user drops on a specific directory on Files screen, then file is added to currently opened directory or /
• there should be a visual cue "Drop here to add to " to ensure user it is safe to drop at the current target

Strongly agree. I'm not clear on why we didn't make the whole viewport the drop target in the first place. @hacdias I know you had a reason, can you explain? We really need a solution to this. I'd say being able to drop anywhere is more important than being able to drop on a dir in the filelist if we have to choose, though I think we can have both.
