Seamless link sharing via drag&drop upload on the tray icon

[jancborchardt]

Moving a file onto the tray icon could directly put it into Nextcloud (either root folder or a specific folder like Auto upload), sync it and copy the share link in the clipboard.
This could be a possible nice bonus feature for the desktop client. Some others who do it are CloudUp, Jumpshare, Droplr, and formerly CloudApp.

What do you think @tobiasKaminsky?

@jospoortvliet what do you think, does this have marketing potential or not really? It’s a small little feature I keep thinking about. :)

@AndyScherzinger this would fit the "high impact gap analysis item" from smaller solutions.

No strong opinion on this one, @tobiasKaminsky can you check the potential development effort to judge it.
