--- Comment #1 from cwo <christoph.w...@gmx.de> ---
Can reproduce on master, but it does not just apply to the Trash (created as
.desktop file). It also happens for regular folders.
The problem seems to be that the drop area seems to be rather small; the cursor
has to be exactly on the icon or label for the drop to be correctly registered.
The problem is mad much worse by the automatic highlighting for things on the
desktop; it activates also while the cursor is hovering in the area around the
cursor and really looks like it's accepting a drop when it isn't.
FWIW, this does not apply to the Trashcan widget. The highlight there is much
more subtle, but if it activates the file can be dropped (and its hit area is a
bit more forgiving).

No, the arrow also appears if you're just hovering on the Trash (or folder)
icon without dragging something. If you click the arrow, you'll get a small
folder view popup that shows the contents of the folder or trash so you can
open them (or drag them out of there, etc.) without having to open a full
Dolphin window. There doesn't seem to be a way to activate the arrow while
dragging, so maybe it would be better if it only showed on non-drag hovering.
