Preference option to allow files to be opened as images by dragging and dropping them onto the canvas
Operating System: All
Description of the feature
Wouldn't it be good to have a preference option that lets GIMP work like any file OS movement?
Preferences->Image Windows->File Action on Canvas Drop -> "Merge" "Open Image" "Ask"
It's odd that such a major behavior is limited to a particular workflow.
Use cases
Dragging a file from the history dockable would be a customizable user experience. Dragging a file from an OS location to the canvas would be a customizable user experience.
