Description

### Expected Behavior

I expect to be able to drag a Request to a newly created folder to keep some requests grouped together.

### Actual Behavior

I drag a request to a folder, and it does everything to avoid the folder. Moves above it, below it, you name it.

### Reproduction Steps

- Go to Request collection
- Add New Request
- Add New Folder
- Try to drag request into the folder. It's an impossible mission.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the drag-and-drop behavior in the Request collection on Windows, following the listed steps with a newly created folder. Trace the request and folder movement entry points and verify that dragging a request into the folder places it inside rather than above or below it.
