Description

If possible without interfering with existing drag logic, the user should be able to drop a file from outside their browser into the explorer without needing to open the upload modal to upload the file.

Research direction

Start by locating the filebrowser explorer and its existing drag-and-drop handling, then trace how the upload modal receives files. Check how external browser file drops are currently treated without disrupting existing drag logic. Done means a file dropped from outside the browser uploads through the explorer without requiring the upload modal, while existing drag behavior still works.
