Description
Moving a file onto the tray icon could directly put it into Nextcloud (either root folder or a specific folder like Auto upload), sync it and copy the share link in the clipboard.
This could be a possible nice bonus feature for the desktop client. Some others who do it are [CloudUp](https://cloudup.com/), [Jumpshare](https://jumpshare.com/), [Droplr](https://droplr.com/), and formerly CloudApp.
