Public bug reported:

Dropping a file from a network share into most applications (Claws Mail,
Chromium, Thunderbird, ...) fails silently. This is because the URIs
sent by Nautilus are GFVS URIs with various schemes (smb://, davs://,
...) and most applications doing POSIX I/O can't do anything with them.

This is easy to check by dropping a file from a network share into the
Terminal.
