When you want to drag a file to an opened window (either nautilos or an app) it's hard and sometimes impossible to do it.

When you move a file to a folder if there is only one instance of Nautilus opened it will still show it on Expo view, after that you would have to pose your pointer above the window and then it would finally let you move the icon there.

If there is only one instance of the app running it should simply bring it to the front, instead of showing it on expo view.

The second problem I have found is that most of the time you have the window where you want to put the file minimized, in this case when you drag the file on top of the App icon it will simply not show the window where you want to drag it.

The third thing is that when having multiple instances of an app running. It's great to have expo view when dragging a file to the App icon, however it should be noted that there is no possible design reason while the user shouldn't be able to simply drag the icon to the "expoed" window instead of having to wait for it to focus. This would save a lot of idle time.
