Copy/move to different folder w drag n drop description loss

I use Xnview Deluxe 2, V1.75.0.0.
To copy or move one or several files to another folder, I usually use the drag and drop method. Dragging the pictures to the folder name in the folder list, is a very fast method.
Unfortunately, I found that this does not work properly with Xnview. The transfer of the pictures works fine, but the description of the pictures is lost (not transferred).
Moreover when using this method, I found that leaving the mouse pointer for a short time on the folder name does not open the folder as windows does with the explorer. Could these 2 points be implemented ?
I know that one can use the “move to” or “copy to“, but it is much more cumbersome.
Could "Ctrl_Z" or edit/ cancel be implemented too, to cancel the operation ?
Thanks.

Hi.
I forgot to ask :
Can we expect to see these items implemented ?
If yes, to day a right click gives the possibility to "copy", without going to the edit menu. When going to another folder, right click menu does not give the "past" option. One must go the the edit menu. Could this be implemented too ?
Regards.

Yes, and you have paste in contextual menu
