Dragging file/folder to location bar should open the relevant location

[David Prieto]

Binary package hint: nautilus

I would like to request the following feature:

-Let's suppose I have two folders in my desktop: Folder A and Folder B.
-I want to move one file from Folder A to Folder B. So I opper Folder A.
-I drag the file to the Desktop button in the location bar, and hold it for a couple seconds.
-The desktop opens in the same window, and I can take the file to Folder B.

This could also work when dragging to folders, or even the back / forward / up buttons.

Thanks for your suggestion; forwarded upstream.

why changed the status from triaged to new again? setting it back to triaged.

[Murat Gunes (mgunes)]

Pedro, that was accidental; thanks for correcting.
