I have often tried to drag something out of Beagle into F-Spot or
Banshee.  I don't think I would uses the right-click-of-the-mouse
option because I like to see where I'm putting stuff.  If I could
CTRL+(some files) and then drag them to F-Spot or Banshee I would be
alot happier.  But it's definitely a good idea to be able to use the
stuff found in Beagle better.
