[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #41443] support drag & drop

[Hartmut]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #41443 (project octave):

ADDITIONAL WISH: Drag and drop to "text area" of m-file editor.

I regularly use the nice feature "drag and drop m-file to GUI editor" to open
the file there.

But this feature currently (Octave 4.2.0) only works when I drop it to the
"PANE AREA" of the editor, I mean the space between the editor icons and the
editor text area. The space where all the names of the currently opened
m-files are listed.

Quite often I happen to drop m-file also to the TEXT AREA of the GUI editor.
In this case the editor just inserts the file name into the code, some text
like "file:///home/my_user/my_script.m". I would very much prefer to also open
this m-file in a new editor pane in this case.
