            Bug ID: 473598

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Dolphin unexpectedly opens "spring loaded" folders as new windows, as explained
in the title. This may be a wayland thing and may be related to the bug (that I
saw reported but can't find now) where holding SHIFT or CTRL during drag - on
wayland - does not trigger the "force move" or "force copy" until you release
the modifier key.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Dolphin to a folder with some files and some folders.
2. Start dragging a file over an empty space
3. Hold SHIFT
4. Drag the file over a folder and immediately release the SHIFT key.

OBSERVED RESULT
Dolphin opens the folder that was dragged over in a new window.

EXPECTED RESULT
Dolphin should navigate to the folder that was dragged over in the same window
- as it does if you don't release the SHIFT key.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: KDE neon 5.27
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.7
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.109.0
Qt Version: 5.15.10
Kernel Version: 6.4.11-060411-generic (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: offscreen
Processors: 20 × 12th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-12700H
Memory: 31.0 GiB of RAM

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This behavior also allows to easily reproduce bug #462483 - if you then release
the dragged file over the new window, the file operations menu will open in a
window instead of a floating menu.
