            Bug ID: 16100
           Summary: Allow UCA in drag and drop menu
    Classification: Xfce Core
           Product: Thunar
           Version: 1.8.9
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Medium
         Component: UCA
          Assignee: xfce-bugs at xfce.org
          Reporter: brunoaiss+xfce at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: 1.6.16

Allow User Custom Actions for the right click drag menu.

This would require making new % replacements. Here are examples, the letters
are debatable.

%l -> The last full path of the first selected file
%L -> The last full path of the all selected files (separated by spaces and
their own spaces escaped)
Optionally, also this:
%g -> The directory containing the file passed in %l
%G -> The directory containing the files passed in %l

If the nodes are not moved, these options still appear and these substitutions
behave the same as their counter-parts %f, %F, %d, %D.

%G is only there for completions sake... It can easily make no sense at all as
%G and %g are exact same.

As for deciding if this UCA appears in the drag and drop menu, just search if
any of %g, %G, %l, %L are used... At least, as a first intention.
There can also be a hidden option about this for whoever wants to customize.


In my use-case, I'd to order a compression of files from one directory to
another (In this case, essentially, reducing the total time it takes and
possibly not having to have a copy of the same on disk)
