Feature request: drop PDFs on Zotero dock icon to import it to library

First of all, I want to note my appreciation for all the thoughtful work that goes into Zotero — especially its macOS integration. It’s rare to see cross-platform software that feels this native while maintaining feature parity and stability across systems.

I wanted to suggest a small quality-of-life improvement for macOS users: the ability to drag and drop a PDF or multiple PDFs onto Zotero's Dock icon to import them into the library. It could use the current import dialog or be the equivalent of dragging a PDF onto My Library in the main window; the latter seems preferable to me, though.

This would make it easier to quickly add papers or documents without switching to the Zotero window, particularly when sorting through downloaded files.

Thank you for considering it, and for continuing to make Zotero such a polished and dependable research tool.
