0.84: Drag&Drop copies files in view 'Thumbs+Details'

XnView: MP 0.84 - 64 bit
OS: Windows 7 - 64bit
When dragging and dropping an image file in the file list the file is copied even though the drag&drop is on the same disk/drive.
Effect: Unexpected behaviour
To reproduce:
1. Open XnView browser and navigate to a folder which contains an image file and a sub folder.
2. In the file list (on the right) drag the image file to the sub folder in the file list and drop it.
Actual behaviour (bug): Image file will be copied to the sub folder.
Expected behaviour: Drag & Drop one the same drive must move the file / folder.

I've tried quite a bit and the problem occurs in View "Thumbnails + Details", only (Browser:
View » View as » Thumbnails + Details). It occurs in 0.84, already, and was not introduced in 0.85 beta1.
I'm quite puzzled that chosen view affects Drag & Drop behaviour.

Oh, I didn't know. This view will need special attention when testing and reproducing bugs.
