If I've told a video player to start playing files on open I would generally expect the player to bring itself to the front after specifically dropping a media file onto it.
Well, yes. But that's not what we are talking about. We are talking about dropping a file onto a *window* of the player application. That's not the same thing as dropping it onto the application's icon.
Dragging something onto an application icon - either in the Finder or in the Dock - is an explicit request to bring that application to the front.
Dragging something inside another application's window is not. Of course there might be exceptions. There almost always are. :)
or do some usability testing with some target users.
If you do that, please make sure they are actually Mac users, not Windows users sitting in front of a Mac. :P
And as this is rather off-topic for cocoa-dev, I'll leave it at that. I just tried to give some advice. Do what you think is best.
