Hi Britt,
thanks for the answer, this topic has already been clarified. At the moment you need proper .desktop files, where the Exec line looks like this:
Exec=<application> %F # or %f, %u, %U --> see .desktop-spec
Unfortunately in my distro hardly any .desktop file has this entry.
AND nautilus' desktop has a different behaviour (it behaves like I expected). Also see the bug I filed: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151598
Thanks anyway, for your will to help!!!

I recently noticed that gnome-panel does not behave as I expected it,
when dropping files from nautilus on an application launcher. At the moment (got Gnome 2.6.2) the application starts, but without recognising the dropped files. What I would expect is:
exec <program> "$@"
It works fine here in Gnome 2.6.2. I am dragging a text file from the desktop (or from nautilus) to Epiphany on my panel, and it loads w/ the text file open in the browser.
What OS / gnome distro are you using?
