--- Comment #15 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---

One concern is that this could make multi-selection using a box/rubber band
selection more difficult. Indeed, the file dialog--which uses kdiroperator,
which implements this behavior--doesn't even support that feature at all.
Nonetheless, the other file managers you mentioned seem to have solved this
problem in a fairly elegant way:
- click-and-drag upwards in an empty area = drag a selection box
- click-and-drag sideways in an empty area = drag-and-drop
- click-and-drag in any direction on an item's icon or label = drag-and-drop

I think it would make sense if Dolphin implemented this too (and then the file
dialog, for that matter).
