Description
Instead of using the 'browse' button of the uploadbox to select the file to upload, make is possible to drag a file from the file system into the upload box. Somehow it already shows the cursor while dragging, but on release of the mousebutton the filename in the upload box stays empty

Well I think you should be able to do this, but the browse button should still be there too.

LOVE this idea and have wanted it for a VERY long time!

+1 for you! If I could give more I would, but I can't!

and I don't say that very often.

That would be good for all over gnome.
KDE has this, dragging a file into an edit box inserts a file:// link
