Bug Description

For example, if I want to play several files in Clementine, I open it and I select these files and drag them to the Clementine window to enqueue them, they are added to the playlist in reversed order (like in the pictures: http://oi62.tinypic.com/xzuy0.jpg and http://oi61.tinypic.com/2z882di.jpg).
The same works, for example, if I upload several files to server through browser.

What order would you expect them in, ideally? Alphabetical order, the order in which they were selected or some other order?

The order in which they were selected, I think.
After using Windows Explorer (in Explorer, files are put in the order in which they were selected), this feels uncomfortable.

The drag-drop order is the same as the view from which they were dragged, regardless of the order of selection, because Gtk get_selection () functions work that way.
