Vista - Drag n drop organising..suggestion

This builld is really very stable.
I would like to suggest,for a way to move or copy a file/folder using drag
and drop..
Vista has a new more functional address bar on all explorer windows..using
which one can go to any folder up or down the current folder view by clicking
the small triangle in the path shown in the address bar.
What I would like to suggest is that when dragging a file/folder to this
triangle,the same menu should pop up so that we can move/copy files through
dragging to any folder that lists in the popup menu.
And not only move/copy files to the next folder in up/down direction,but to
folders further deep the folder line..

This feature addition would be really a boost in managing/organising files..

Thanks.

Hi,
You can do what you want by selectng the small arrow at the bottom left next
to folders. This brings up the same list and you can drag and drop. I also
like that it tells you where you are dragging and dropping.

Yes indeed..in folder pane ,this can be done...I just didn't use the folder
pane till now...thank you for pointing this out.
But if this could be done from the address bar itself don't u think it would
be much more obvious to users?
I tried to suggest this feature to vista suggestions page..but there was an
error while submitting.

And is there enough time left now to implement this in vista now,,i think
not enough..

Anyways ,thanks for pointing out the folder pane workaround..
