Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the extension's handling for drag-and-drop into the editor area, then compare it with VS Code's file explorer behavior. Done means dragging a folder or package opens it in the current VS Code window, with behavior matching the file explorer.
