Drag and drop all files from a directory

Hi all, mostly Jesse :)
in uDig1.2 M6 there was a so nice and useful functionality for which I could drag and drop all the files and directories in a folder and uDig did the filter on files it could import or not.
In the last two releases M7 and the M8 Jody and Andrea are trying to do in this code sprint, we lost this functionality.

Jesse, do you have an idea on what may be happened? or where to look to fix it?

Thanks in advance,

Silvia

Hi Jesse:

Steps needed to reproduce:
- select foo.shp and foo.shx and drag into udig
- in the debugger it trips up pretty hard trying to process both files

I was thinking the most stable thing to do would be to cull the list  
against supported file extensions?
