Description
I'd like to be able to select file(s) in Finder and drag them over the menu bar icon to reveal the window, then drop file(s) onto an area in the window.
Is this possible?

Research direction
The issue names no files or tests. Start by locating the TypeScript/Electron code that creates the menu bar icon and controls the window, then trace how drag events could be observed. Done means dragging files from Finder over the icon reveals the window and dropping them onto a window area is supported; clarify the intended behavior before coding.
