I never liked having .txt on TextEdit files, and turned that option off... only to find that the Finder doesn't know which app to open the files I created in TextEdit with. I don't use TextEdit much now. I know this is a off-topic, but why can't I drag and drop text in TextEdit? I really like being able to do that.

You can. You just need a slight delay before dragging, otherwise it starts selecting. This is just how the Cocoa text system behaves (it's different from the Carbon text services you're probably used to). This is probably a bug, though... Is the Cocoa or the Carbon functionality correct?
