For historical reasons there are several ways to represent files during drag'n'drop. Safari accepts most of them, iTunes does not. The only one hard-coded in gtkquartz.c is NSURLPboardType, but you want NSFilenamesPboardType.

BTW there are several types for URL as well. Dragging from Safari prepares no less than four.
