https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1648268 Drag and Drop from file-roller Does not work on Wayland (edit)
This came up for blocker review today. We're a bit stalled on consensus whether "drag and drop" is to be considered basic functionality, but then also what is the central problem going on in the bug. If someone could take a look and make sure the right people are cc'd on it, that would be super.

I'd say this is beyond the scope of the basic functionality criterion. If file-roller were, say, unable to open most .tar.gz or .zip archives, then that would be a basic functionality failure. I think we can release without drag-and-drop!

... like we did in the past. The upstream issue[0] dates back to GNOME 3.22/F25 :)

"Get things done with ease, comfort and control." "Simple and easy to use" "Helps you get things done" "Finely crafted"
Aren't we being a bit dishonest here? Isn't "drag and drop" the interaction with the gui that even the most basic users are familiar with?

"We" didn't write that text.
Anyway, a bug is a bug. This one has been around for a long time, so while it would be nice to fix it, it is difficult to argue that it should be blocker when a) it hasn't blocked many releases before and b) a fix is unlikely to materialize
