Google introduces drag and drop to Gmail

Google has recently introduced something that I think is huge - drag and drop functionality into the browser. No longer to do you have so scratch around a confusing file system for that picture you want to attach in an email. You can actually simply drag and drop directly from the application. I can't wait for this to permeate Google's other platforms such as docs and sites - finally we can focus on sharing information rather than clunky filenames.

Currently this is only available natively with Google Chrome or Firefox 3.6 - it is done using HTML5.
