Enhancement: Drag & Drop #64

I'm not sure if this is possible for an extension, but it would be so nice if we could just drag&drop (D&D) a mail into an external editor, and thunderbird would paste the 'thunderlink'... (either cbthunderlink or thunderlink, depending on configuration)

Currently, D&D of an email doesn't make anything. If this plugin could intercept that, and pastes either the link as text, or the link as a link, it would be great !

A bit late to the party, but just to be sure: you can setup a shortcut in the addon to "Copy configurable link 1 to the clipboard" - so rather than D&D you press the hotkey to get the link which you can then paste in your editor of course. (That is how I do it)
