This is a very important feature of HTML 5 that should be fixed in my opinion
and without it, it is impossible to make custom data types for drop operations.
event.dataTransfer.setData is useless if you can't get the data for
modification. 

For example, it should be possible to set an image ondrag for images where the
site knows the metadata of certain images to getData("text/plain") and use this
data to do setData("application/json+exif", customizedData) to include said
metadata in a custom data type.
