This would be similar to the Open folder -functionality: it would open the folder to the projects view. Currently when you drag & drop a folder to the Projects pane, a dialog pops up saying: "You dropped the directory ..... into Kate. Do you want to open all files contained in it?" - Open All Files / Cancel Instead it could say "open folder" too. And open it to the Projects view. Additionally: if you drag a folder to a project view with an open project, it will trigger a folder copy. That might be a bit odd.

Actually what would fill my wish is to have "Open folder" happening via drag-n-drop to (empty) Projects view. Then, drag-dropping over an existing project folder that is actually open in the view would be a copy target, as it is now.
