Bug Description

When I drag drop a file to a bookmarked folder in the side pane, the drag is not accepted and the file stays where it is.
Expected it to be moved to the bookmarked folder.
* Drag is not accepted, folder does not highlight/select as drag target when the drag icon is over it, releasing the mouse the drag icons floats back to drag start located
* The folder in question is "Downloads" which is on the local file system and opens fine when clicked.
* Copy pasting with keyboard shortcuts to do the same move works fine.
* Drag to a folder in the "Computer" or "Devices" sections of the side pane (E.g. Desktop) is accepted, so issue seems limited to "Bookmarks" section

@pedro: can you explain how this is a duplicate ? This bug is about dragging to a bookmark folder, not about creating a new bookmark. I can imagine a common root cause, but maybe you could add a comment about that ?

This IS NOT a duplicate of 827049. 827409 deals with creating Bookmarks, this deals with how the cannot be used in an expected manor.

Yet another regression that affects power users! I've been swearing under my breath all day because of these things, and now I find another one. This sucks so much.
