XDND for Files

September 10th, 2009

It’s been a sore spot for a long time that some early implementations of XDND file dragging did not include the hostname in the URL’s. Since these were influential implementations, it was politically impossible to update them. I finally found a clever way around this: use the hostname from WM_CLIENT_MACHINE on the source window. I have added a paragraph to the spec to explain this.
