Research direction

Start by reproducing the drag operation in the Scratch editor and trace the handling for the “Make a Block,” “Make a Variable,” and “Make a List” areas. Done means dragging a block onto any of these areas no longer opens its creation dialog, while intentional creation actions still do.
