Drag & Drop both ways

Subject: Drag & Drop both ways

I'm just adding drag and drop of files between my app and the desktop, in both directions. It mostly works, even with a customised drag image, apart from two issues:

1. I must be missing something obvious in the API but how do I stop dragging files onto myself?? If I initiate a drag inside my window but then cancel it by releasing the button without leaving the window I still receive an incoming drag as if I'd dragged the file in from the Finder!

2. When receiving multiple files from the Finder I get a java.util.List containing File objects. However, when I try to send multiple files the same way it's ignored. I can only ever send a single file, using a serialised java.io.File (as opposed to a java.util.List) in my Transferable.

Any ideas? This is 1.3.1 under 10.2.2 by the way.
