                    but applied when only pressed

moved file.png

SUMMARY
When you want to move a file to a folder you (before 6.0) had to press eg.
Shift to move the file. Now it does no longer work when you *hold* the button.
When you just press and release the function key (Shift, Ctrl, Alt) the
operation does work.

When the function key is pressed (so the action will be applied when you
release the left mouse button) the symbol on the cursor does not change like it
used to in 5.27. So there is no indication that the file will be
copied/moved/linked. See attached file move symbol.jpg

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Left click on a file and hold it
2. Press Shift and hold it
3. Move file and drop it onto the folder

(The alternate for 3 would be to press the function key once and drop the file
onto the folder)

OBSERVED RESULT
When the key is held down, the context window pops up (see moved file.png) and
asks you what you want to do with the file (copy, move, link).
When the key is pressed once, the operation is applied.

EXPECTED RESULT
The file operation is applied whether the key is pressed or held down.
(I would prefer the operation to be done "Like on Windows" so 'move' is default
and does not require Shift, but that's a different topic)
