Bug Description
Try to drag and drop a file into Midori-webkit2 gives a error page with the title Ooops
The console shows a log
Received an unexpected URL from the web process: 'file:/
Received an invalid message "WebPageProxy.
This is due to a lack of implementation of WebPageProxy.
Before this bug will be fixed, probably it will be needed a implementation for this(???).

I have some news about this particular issue.
Part of the problem seems to be a problem in the webkitgtk2 engine this seems to affect the versions 2.4.x, 2.5.x and 2.6.x
The change log inside of the version 2.4.7 seems to fix the problem, so I compiled webkitgtk2 inside of a VM (don't do this, it will take an immense amount of time without powerful hardware, too much for my humble i3 Haswell mobile).
Then I compiled midori, and sometimes seems to work. When you have a page rendered in webkit2 but if instead you don't have a page rendered then midori show an error:
Received an unexpected URL from the web process: 'file:/
Received an invalid message "WebPageProxy.
Droping an html file over a tab selector seems to work.
So the only case left to cover is when there's no webview rendered.
