Drop an extension zip in the extension manager does not work.

Prerequisites

• Is this Brackets-Electron specific problem (did you test it with latest brackets build)?

Description

I see errors like this one in the console Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'fullPath' of null

Versions

Windows 10
1.9.4

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open the extensions manager
2. Drop an extension zip

Expected behavior: the extension is installed

Actual behavior: the extension is not installed

[ficristo]

The problem is that DataTransferItem.webkitGetAsEntry() return null.
Trying to reproduce on a browser, also there, when webkitGetAsEntry is used on a dragover listener, it returns null. But it returns an entry when called inside a drop listener.

Maybe when Brackets will update its shell will hit the same behaviour.

So no one worked on this bug yet ?

Nobody AFAIK.
I doubt there will be a new release anytime soon, so it is not worth to look at it...
