Description

Is it possible to make the target a directory other than Applications? Specifically, I would like to have the drag and drop function copy files into ~/Documents/folder/subfolder.

Research direction

The issue names no files or tests. Start by tracing how the drag-and-drop target is configured in the repository and how paths are represented, then check whether a non-Applications destination can be specified. Done means the requested Documents subfolder is accepted as a target and the copied files appear there.
