windowmaker has had the dnd feature since 2004, according to its changelog, and is still somewhat considered as experimental (according to src/wconfig.h.in:39) However, I (and maybe even others) find the feature useful, for example; I drag'n-drop a file from xfe filemanager on the Clip-icon to have xcowsay mooh out the output from `file` and the first 5 lines from the file (if not binary) with `head -n 5` via a small script (I can of course supply that if anyone should have interest). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Works from my local overlay 2. 3. Will supply my patches after initial submission. Suggestion to submit into profiles/use.local.desc: x11-wm/windowmaker:dnd - Enables experimental support for XDND drop in the WindowMaker Dock.

It looks like DND will be fixed in a new version. :) http://repo.or.cz/w/wmaker-crm.git/shortlog/refs/heads/next
Thanks for the report! In the meantime, 0.95.6 has just been released, including the fix mentioned by adr and enabling XDND by default (no longer marked experimental). So the latest ebuild should fix everything here :)
