I do think that drag and drop from other app than nautilus may be broken 
too. All of this was caused by the change in the gnome-vfs is_local method 
for the file: module to return FALSE for nfs directories. 

uri_is_local() is used inside nautilus for a number of thing, including 
is_a_unix_path, is_a_local_harddrive and is_fast. I don't know why this 
function was changed, but it affects nautilus in many ways. I think we 
should perhaps back that change out and fix it in a better way post 2.0.0.
