Description
Right now with iOS/iPadOS 15, when you try to long press an item, it won't go anywhere. It would be nice if you could drag items like you can in the files app. Perhaps using UISpringLoadedInteraction.
It also seems that you can't drag and drop files into the app either, which seems really weird because that you can't do that because it's a fundamental part of working with files on any graphical system.

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reproducing the behavior on iOS/iPadOS 15 and reviewing the app's file-item interactions alongside UIKit's UISpringLoadedInteraction and drag-and-drop APIs. Done means files can be dragged to, from, and within the app as described.
