When I CTRL-drag and drop a file from Explorer into Mp3tag, Mp3tag's tracklist loses focus so up, down, home, end etc. keys stop working, until I give the list focus by e.g. mousing the scrollbar.

If the file list already has the focus, it's preserved also after Ctrl+drop.

I've also tried it under WXP and it's working there as well.
