Hi Eelco, hi all! Many sites use cool feature which allows the user to
drag-and-drop local files directly into the browser in order to upload
them or process in some other way. It works in Firefox on Windows and
Mac, but, unfortunately, not in Linux. I've done some googling and
discovered that people think it is a firefox issue. Here are some
links:

JQuery discussion: https://github.com/blueimp/jQuery-File-Upload/issues/1837
Firefox bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609284

I've found you are in the firefox maintainers list, so could you
please try the patch they suggest next time you do the revision?

The patch: https://bug609284.bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=745101

Thanks in advance,
Sergey
