That is OSX-specific. IWBN if this functionality were rewritten in py-gtk,
so that we could indeed share it between all GUB builds.

On Windows there is a specific point-and-click compile and edit
implementation, with minimal functionality. On Linux there is
nothing, I'm not sure if we still support emacs/point-and-click. We
used to support drag and drop in with the autopackages, but we haven't
had any complaints of dropping that.
