Comment:

 My apologies -- I'm posting too fast.  This wasn't a drag and drop, but a
 Save from a FilePanel.  I opened the filepanel in an editor (Eddie as it
 happens, but I just verified that the same is true with e.g. StyledEdit)
 and tried to save to the name of the link, but the file the link pointed
 to got overwritten instead.
