Deprecate and remove webkitdropzone

Project Member Reported by pwnall@chromium.org, Dec 15 2016

Issue description

We don't currently support the dropzone attribute [1] in the HTML5 drag and drop specification. Instead, we support a prefixed webkitdropzone attribute. Due to a bug in the code, the attribute only works on pages served from a file: origin.

We should fix the webkitdropzone behavior, ship it as dropzone, and then deprecate and remove webkitdropzone.

Firefox does not seem interested in implementing dropzone.

I put together a CL that proves that webkitdropzone does not work for dragging files into a page served from a http(s): origin. http://crrev.com/2585553002
