--- Comment #1 from Frank Reininghaus <frank78ac at googlemail.com> ---
Thanks for the report. This is not a Dolphin issue. The "Create New..." menu,
that appears, e.g., in the context menus of Konqueror, Dolphin, and FolderView,
is provided by kdelibs, and AFAIK, everyone can add additional items there by
installing a Desktop file in the suitable location. So I'm not quite sure where
to reassign this report.

Drag&drop is unrelated to the context menu. Please do not mix unrelated things
in a single report. The drag&drop menu is provided by lib/konq in the
kde-baseapps repository.

A big -1 from my side. The average user will have no clue what "Symlink" and
"Shortcut" means.
