Without this change, the drag source will always get "None" as result, probably set by another handler that kicked in because e.Handled was not set to true.
In particular this:
To notify the drag source of the effect of the drop, such as a copy or move, set the DragEventArgs.Effects property in the Drop event handler. The value of this property is the return value of the DoDragDrop method that initiated the drag-and-drop operation. If the value that is returned does not match one of the allowedEffects specified in the call to DoDragDrop, the drag-and-drop operation is not performed.
