SUMMARY
Kate has some built-in file management features. For example, it easy to rename or delete a file. This works in the file system browser or the project view. I am missing the option to move a file or directory. I tried drag-and-drop but it does nothing.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select a file in the file system browser
2. Try to drag it into another directory

OBSERVED RESULT
* The cursor changes so it looks like a copy/move depending on whether or not I hold down shift
* When I try to "drop" in another directory, nothing happens

EXPECTED RESULT
* The move or copy should happen depending such that it matches the mouse cursor. On my setup, not holding down shift indicates a copy, and holding down shift indicates a move.
