Description
## Prerequisites
- [x] I have searched open and closed issues for duplicates.
## Feature
It's a common action for many users to dragging and drooping files from one folder to an other, even so files app does this with the icon view, is unable to do it on the following cases:
- To a top folder on column view, example:
When on home folder, opening downloads folder and trying to move a file from downloads to documents.
- Any view to the sidebar
**Describe the solution you'd like**
The behavior should be the same as the current solution on the icon view, maybe add some feedback to the user that the folder is going to be opened.
**Existing work**
Something similar happens on MacOS, it make the folder to "flash" before open the folder.
**Describe alternatives you've considered**
Different from mac, i'm not expecting to the folder to flash since the user is already selecting the destination folder, but maybe a little spinning icon over the folder just to let user know that the folder is been loading.
