Feature Request: Native file drag & drop into filesystem
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I have a use case which requires dragging files (references to local file paths) from the webview "out" into file system. This is achievable in electron (link), and think it would a beneficial feature of Tauri.
Describe the solution you'd like In a webview, I would like the ability start a drag which references a file/multiple files and drop it somewhere in the filesystem.
Describe alternatives you've considered I asked about this in the Tauri discord, there are no alternatives and I was prompted to create this Feature Request.
Additional context
Here is a gif of the behavior in electron

For file explorers based on web technology like Xplorer, this is pretty much a required feature.
Hello, version 1.0 is out right now, is there any chance for this feature to be implemented? 👀
Hi, any updates on that feature?
Does anyone have a way to do this? A plugin maybe? To advance the cause I put this here: https://webkit.org/blog/8170/clipboard-api-improvements/
I'm also interested in this feature as i'm working on an audio related app and would like to drag the files from the app to audio editors directly.
I have tried with electron and it works using an IPC call, perhaps this can work as a reference implementation for Tauri: https://github.com/electron/electron/pull/6333
Bump! Any hope for this feature?

This feature should not be labeled low priority in my opinion. Many desktop applications require this feature.
Hope to see it added!
Do you currently have any solutions
This is crucial feature, which Electron has. We need to support dragging files inter-applications in system.
Thanks to Kino AI, we're pleased to announce that the team at CrabNebula will contribute this long-requested feature upstream to WRY and integrated into Tauri.

amazing! also nice to discover CrabNebula!
I really hope this feature gets released in v2 or sooner. :)
Some kind of roadmap for this feature would be greatly appreciated, and thanks to the team at CrabNebula for taking this on!
We will be publishing the feature mid next week after the documentation is done.

Is this the repo? https://github.com/crabnebula-dev/drag-rs
Gave the examples a try on MacOS and dragging is indeed working, great work!
Beautiful. I can't wait to finally start making my file manager program.

Hi, it seems that this plugin can only access the drop position, not the drop file path.
