Dnd hover on sidebar no longer opens directory hovered over

[Doug McMahon]

Seems to be from recent gtk3 upgrades which have affected sidebar in several ways.
Test case:
Open nautilus to any directory
Grab a file with cursor, bring over to sidebar & hover over a directory such as Documents

What happens: nothing
What should happen: the main nautilus window should switch to directory hovered over after a bit less than a sec. of hover time

(the sidebar also was affected by newer gtk in -
context menu on sidebar items is now the gnome cartoon bubble style
mounted volumes are indicated with a button instead of just an icon

Thanks, indeed it's a GTK change. I can't find the commit but I wouldn't be surprise if it was a design decision/related to https://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus/commit/?id=ec2b9674b0025bcd8cd30246135962d5a77d9685

The tooltip indeed look weird, that might be worth another bug report, the icon is buggy for sure and probably require a theme change similar to https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=755268 ... could you report that in a new ticket?

Marking this as invalid as it was upstream intent & in the case of sidebar dnd hover > open dir. really doesn't matter whether it was enabled or now been removed.
