request: html5 drag 'n drop in Clutch

Post by carbonize »

For me (and I imagine many other users) it would be very useful to be able to add new torrents by dragging them onto the clutch web-interface.

At my home setup transmission is running on a (semi-) headless mac mini, which I administrate useing a macbook pro. Often I'd like to add 5-10 new torrents at once. So far the only alternatives I've found is to drop files in the watch-folder (which requires me to open finder, connect to the mini and finally navigate to the folder), or upload them one by one in the web-interface. It would be much simpler and faster if could just drop the files in my already-open browser window :)

As both Google Chrome and Firefox 3.6 supports this feature now, there should be quite a large group who would benefit from this feature.

I'd also like to point out that a similar request was made about a year ago:
