Fixed issues with drag-and-drop functionality on Linux.

I thought this was a Wayland issue. In the past (when I was on X11), dragging images out from Firefox into my filemanager worked. Good to see this functionality made a comeback.

Same, I couldn't find an open issue for this anywhere. Now if they wanna fix the ability to launch executables from Firefox under wayland I'd appreciate that.

Why would you want your browser to launch executables?

Introducing Windows ...

Not arbitrarily. I've just had difficulty launching deb and AppImage packages from within Wayland after downloading them. I have to explicitly navigate to Dolphin and launch them. I know what I downloaded, I want to be able to run it from Firefox's download menu.
