Dropping a file does work, but there's no indicator to show that it will work.
This seems to happen because there are no blocks in the post. The 'Type / to choose a block' text is part of a React component called the
DefaultBlockAppender
, so the usual block drop indicators don't work (and they wouldn't be the right thing to show anyway).There's also a similar situation when trying to drag a block or a file into an empty group block, so it may be worth coming up with one solution for empty block lists.
