I looked into drag 'n drop a while ago. You have to use an object in Beagle that has drag 'n drop characteristics, and then use it to hold the information of say a picture. Then a similar drag 'n drop object has to be in F-Spot in the form of a panel which would be the destination for a picture from Beagle. That's a simplification but somewhat how it works. On Gnome this would work well. You first drag Beagle to the appropriate virtual window where F-Spot is located, and then drag the appropriate pictures from Beagle into the appropriate folders in F-Spot. Seems dreamy. ;) Could work. I don't know how many of these capabilities are available in Mono.
