Comment:
I tested this behavior on WP 6.8.2 and can confirm the issue:
- Dragging a .zip file outside the small input triggers a browser
download.
- The proposed CSS-only patch fixes it and works consistently.
I agree that treating this as a UX enhancement makes sense, but it still
improves accessibility and could be useful in future design updates.
Thanks @iamibrahimriaz for the clean approach.
