            Bug ID: 204281
           Summary: [GTK] Dragging files to a WebView fails unless dragged
                    outside of all windows first
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Other
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKitGTK
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

Files dragged directly to a WebKitWebView are not accepted for dropping unless the cursor moves outside all application windows first, then to the window containing the WebView.

We're just landing support for drag and drop images for the composer in Geary and I noticed that I can't drag an image from a Nautilus or EoG window to the composer if they are adjoining, rather I need to drag the cursor to the gnome-shell header or over a clear part of the desktop background first, then the cursor changes to indicate drop is possible when dragged over the composer's WebView.

To reproduce:

1. Open a Epiphany window half-secreened on one side, Nautilus window half screened on the other
2. Drag and drop a file (e.g. an image) from the Nautilus window directly to the to Epiphany window

Note the image is not loaded in the Ephy window, which is unexpected.

3. Drag the image via the gnome shell header bar then drop it on Epiphany

Note the image is loaded in the Ephy window as expected.

 * WebKitGTK 2.26.2
 * Wayland session (not tested under X11)
