Since this is about documentation of correct usage (and an upstream issue) I think we can resolve this (again, for Beta1 - no respin was needed).

[~mmurray] I've set RN doc status to Not Yet as this clearly needs to be documented carefully so users know to drag into Central, not into other views or editors.

[~snjeza] If you think more can be done here - either fixes to upstream or a better way of handling when users drag into the wrong place - feel free to open a new enhancement JIRA, linked to this one.

> usecase is that you can have a link to a connector, such as JBDS-IS could be installed by drag'n'drop to jboss tools or jbds.
> Similar to eclipse marketplace for marketplace urls something like:
> * https://devstudio.jboss.com/central/install?connector=com.jbds.integration-stack.bpel,org.eclipse.m2e or 
> * http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/central/install?CID=com.jbds.integration-stack.bpel,org.eclipse.m2e
> would install the two connectors named "com.jbds.integration-stack.bpel" and "org.eclipse.m2e"
> This would allow drag'n'drop install from html docs.
> Consider also supporting this from any clipboard object (eg., dragged from an Acrobat Reader PDF or Microsoft Office doc). Would need to ensure we do lots of platform testing.
