Event Behavior: Dragging from file list to filled patch

[robobenklein]

Need to determine the desired behavior for a user dragging a new item onto a patch which is already filled.

Probably it should just replace the editor in the patch, but then need to also ensure hooks for unsaved file prompt.

Another behavior could be to relocate the old patch to a nearby patch if there's an empty one to the right or left of the target patch. (Would be user preference: "Relocate patch instead of Replacing")

Finally figured out the Atom drag type IDs...

Is this replacement for now or locating the nearest empty patch? Also, on the event of moving the patch to another non-empty patch, does the original patch become empty for a very short period of time? Curious if that would dip into the finding of nearest empty patches optional feature for the user. Maybe replacement is good for now though

Dragging an item onto a patch replaces that patch with the new item.

Opening an item from the file drawer without a drag (not specific to a patch) will perform the best-nearest search for a spot to open it in.

Investigate potential bug: item replaced not prompting for save if modified?
