      The built-in selection mechanism in swing text components ( such as JTextPane, JTextArea, JTextField) interferes with drag gesture recognition from DragGeastureRecognizer (drag-n-drop API), which prevent drag-n-drop with selection from working.

      JTextComponent will need some specialized work to support drag and drop correctly.
