You CAN drag and drop image files

When I upload an image file, I often think it would be nice to drag and drop the file rather than navigating through multiple folders looking for the file that I already have the location open to in File Explorer.  On a lark I tried it and, lo and behold, it works!  You can drag and drop your image file from File Explorer in Windows onto the "Choose File" button on the Upload Image page.  The truncated file name will appear to the right of the button.  The directions don't mention this nor does the help file.  Maybe I'm late to the party and everyone else has already figured this out, but I thought I'd share in case I'm not the only one.  I've only verified this with Windows 10 and Chrome.

I've tried this several times, and it just doesn't work. Nor does copy paste. Frustrating, because saving an image to my computer, just to add to Wikitree images seems so cumbersome. Any pointers on how to make this an easier process?
