Drag and drop as general UI principle

Drag and drop seems one of those things that one normally expects as basic principle of current day apps.

Greatly, Capacities by now allows for some d'n'd in the left & right side panels, blocks in objects, and for import (once the modal is opened).

There are some more areas / contexts within UI-architecture where it would be a welcome feature; and a catchup with native OS apps, really.

So, I'd like to propose / ask that there is a general commitment to have a general drag and drop principle implemented in Capacities (– even if this technically breaks down to individual steps of implementation)

There is a host of requests for d'n'd here on the board, and I feel this really should be seen as one effort; as it concerns a principle of UI that one is used to by now.

– In that respect, I feel, it belongs to the area where CAP still needs to catch up, and which should somewhat be prioritized over adding new feature sets and build extensions of the core capacities.

I would love to have this feature please, my main problem now is that it's tedious to have to categorize objects in my collection by opening them one by one. Ideally I want to be able to drag and drop objects from one collection to another.
