Bug description and reproduction

1. Upon dragging an image from Firefox to the hydrus client, rather than beginning a url import a file import begins which targets a file as such: C\Users\User\AppData\Local\Temp\name.bmp
2. Even if I try to import this way it comes up as "ignored".

This works even if I open the image in a new tab and seems to only work if I inspect element and then drag over the image source link.
Dragging and dropping to other things such as paint or discord still works.
This issue seems to not occur on chromium. I would rather keep using firefox and am hoping there is an easy fix for this.

The way drag and drop works is that the system says there is something on the clipboard(yes technically internally systems treat drag and drop as another clipboard). Hydrus has no control over what the sending application puts on the clipboard. It just reads what is on the clipboard.

• In the case of chrome it must put the http url of the file on the clipboard
• In the case of Firefox it downloads the file at a temporary location and then puts the path of the temporary location on the clipboard. The behaviour is different when you drag the link because it instead puts the url on the clipboard.

@hydrusnetwork Hydrus probably should not be ignoring the file:// scheme since I suspect that's what gets pooped out of the clipboard in this instance. But it should maybe not consider file:// urls as known urls.
