Sounds like it. If it works from `desktop:/` in Dolphin, but not from Folder view, I bet the drag isn't being sent the right way. However, testing with a file in `desktop:/`, the drag and drop happens successfully, but the path listed in the filename field is invalid (e.g. `desktop:IMG_0713.JPG` and the file can't actually be opened: F6795316: Screenshot_20190426_111318.png <https://phabricator.kde.org/F6795316> Looks like the protocol is missing a trailing slash before the file path part. Interestingly, I notice that if I drag the same file from `desktop:/<file>` the filename field, the path is listed as `file:///home/dev/Desktop/IMG_0713.JPG` which is different, but also correct. Perhaps the path just needs to be sanitized in the same way when dragged to the file view?
