Research direction
Start at the drag-and-drop behavior settings section in the linked JabRef documentation and compare its current statements with the Discourse discussion and issue #7313. Verify which behaviors differ for CTRL, Shift, ALT, and unmodified drag-and-drop, then update that section so it accurately documents the current behavior and the unresolved case.
