Can't drag files from a network share in the Library to a player (Windows)

[Sean M. Pappalardo]

Happens in Windows. (Tested with XP Pro x64 and Home x86.)
Works correctly in Linux (using a mounted Windows share.)

To reproduce:
1) Set the library to a folder that is a network share (either \\computer\share or a mapped network drive.)
2) Rescan the library
3) Drag a file to one of the players and notice it doesn't do anything.

Workarounds: right-click the file and choose load in player x. Or double-click a file to load it into player 1.

I'd like to add that this happens on Ubuntu too; Ubuntu's network shares are crazy and non-standard but still, you'd think we could make this work.

I believe at least with gio-powered Nautilus we should be able to make
it work on Ubuntu at the same time. Thanks for pointing this out Nick,
it'll be a lot easier for me to test it on Ubuntu first. :)

Umm, it's working now in the branch (in Windows.)
