Replaced actual DropSpot with pure HTML 5 implementation
It would be nice to have a new Drag and Drop option for uploading files and folders directly to the LogicalDOC interface.
This new feature should allow files and folders to be uploaded from the desktop to the LogicalDOC web interface.
Starting from Chrome 21 this option is available and now in 2019 is supported by all the major browser.
This solution would allow us to dispose of the Java component for Drag'n'Drop which is currently laborious, complex, and inconvenient to use, since every time the user changes directory, he must go back to downloading the jar
