The same app gets internal drags with my own DataFlavor, and
there, getting the data during the drag is no problem.
I've tried with Firefox and Safari, and both exhibit the same
problem, so I do believe that's a problem of Apple's Java
implementation. Maybe they just didn't see that
DropTargetDragEvent.getTransferable() was added in 1.5? But I
couldn't believe that nobody told them yet? And it doesn't seem
to be so hard to add, since the cursor even "knows" the URL being
dragged...
I'll file a bug.
Thanks - and if anybody else has any other ideas how to solve
this, would be great!
