Description

> Lower-priority / nice-to-have.

A tester wants to drop external files into the project -- e.g. a figure from a published paper -- so they can compare it against Orbit's analysis output. Today there's no drag-and-drop affordance to get a file into the project.

Related to #92 (side-by-side / compare view in the File tab); this is the input side of the same comparison workflow.

Research direction

Start in the File tab and trace how files currently enter a project; read related issue #92 for the comparison workflow. Define how an externally dropped file becomes available in the project, then verify it can be compared with Orbit’s analysis output.
