On MacOS text drag-n-drop does not work out of the box. Also a dnd
event seems to be bound to different functions depending on modifier
settings.
Emacs -Q
C-h v ns-command-modifier -> "It's value is super"
C-h k <drag and drop external text>
-> "<M-s-drag-n-drop> is undefined"
(setq ns-command-modifier 'none)
C-h k <drag and drop external text>
-> "<M-drag-n-drop> at that spot runs the command
ns-drag-n-drop-as-text"
(setq ns-command-modifier 'control)
C-h k <drag and drop external text>
-> "<C-M-drag-n-drop> at that spot runs the command
ns-drag-n-drop-as-text-other-frame"
etc

Excellent.

I’ve dug into this a bit and I think that’s actually a valid URL as
far as Emacs is concerned. I’m not sure what protocol it’s trying to
use, but it matches the form file://hostname/filename. I assume the
freeze you see is it doing a lookup and if left long enough it will
time out (although it’s an extraordinarily long timeout if true).
I’ll push this to master now.
