I looked into this a bit more.
Regarding the concern about drag operations exposed via drag & drop: I believe
many native applications provide the ability to paste a link via a "paste link"
or "paste special" command. In theory, browsers could add such a menu command
that performs a drop with an effect of 'link'.
Regarding paste executing a script: this is already possible in existing
browsers with the "paste" and "beforepaste" events - which also allow altering
the contents of what is pasted. So this is not a new issue.
What Ian says is also true - the spec does not specify the exact interactions
that would cause drag and drop behavior. Nothing precludes a keyboard-driven
way to do it other than copy/paste.
Are there specific spec changes that would help ensure that implementations are
properly accessible via the keyboard?
