Comment(by anevilyak):

 Replying to [comment:8 bonefish]:
 > Apparently BeOS' Expander subclasses it, since BeOS's BTextView doesn't
 seem to accept entry refs. I not so sure that it's good idea that ours
 does by default. It does seem handy to quickly insert a file path into a
 text, but I suppose in a lot of applications a different behavior is
 expected -- e.g. when dropping a text file on a text editor window I would
 prefer it to just open the file. There's always right-button dragging for
 all options.

 Should I just remove that behavior from BTextView then? Or perhaps
 relocate that behavior to BTextControl so it only applies for single line
 textviews (in which case it would obviously replace existing content)?
