    Description

      In Linux, the content type of a native file drag/drop operation is "text/uri-list" (with multiple representation classes available). getTransferData() effectively returns a list of strings from which URI instances can be constructed. org.apache.pivot.wtk.RemoteManifest and org.apache.pivot.wtk.LocalManifestAdapter try to deal exclusively in DataFlavor.javaFileListFlavor, but since this flavor isn't used in Linux, native file drag/drop operations don't work in Pivot – AWT and Pivot effectively talk past each other in this case.
