Starting with xfdesktop 4.10.3, I can no longer extract a file by dragging it from File Roller (version 3.14.2) onto the desktop. The moment the cursor touches the desktop, the operation aborts and File Roller reports: "Destination folder "(null)" does not exist." This seems to be caused by commit d3b6978 (Decide on move/copy action before items have been dropped). [1] Bug also exists in latest xfdesktop from git master (tested with 4.11.8git-a4d701b).

I've commented on bug https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=735857 I'm not sure this is a bug in xfdesktop since the gtk docs say we can do DND this way... unless I've missed something.
Good news, this should be fixed: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=735857 Feel free to provide feedback there (and I'm CC'ed on it).

That's correct! I've posted some feedback in bug 740233 as well. [1] (My first comment there was before the fix implementation.) Thanks for your help in triaging this bug.
