The simple way to do this is to Minimize the window to which you want to drag the file, then make the window "Always on top." Open or go to the window from which you wish to drag the file or Folder. DND the file or folder. Works like a charm for adding files to Google Drive and for attaching files to Gmail, assume it will work with other windows/programs. Not as elegant as dnd to the launcher, but hey, it works, it is simple and it takes just a few seconds more than dnd to the launcher.

P.S. - Resizing the screens manually makes for a better dnd experience. Hint: Whan dnd'ing to Google Drive, move the file or folder around on the Drive window until you see the " + " handle on the file / folder icon; drop the file and the Google Drive upload dialog window should launch.
