Remote Host / FTP does not ask for confirmation when moving file

When using FTP, I find that sometimes I'll accidentally drag a file into the wrong folder. Sometimes, this will totally crash the website, as it cannot find a dependency on my site.

Also, once the file is moved, I can see under the 'File Transfer' tab that a flle has been moved, but not where it has been moved to so that I can shift it back. (eg. [13/7/17, 11:31 AM] Move Remote Items completed in less than a minute: 1 item moved)

Is there a setting to either enable an opt-in message before files are moved over FTP, and/or can the File Transfer messages be made more detailed with 'From' and 'to'.

Thanks,

Ari

Hello,

We already have a related request submitted to our tracker here: <https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WI-36742>. Please vote for it (thumb up button) in order to move it up in the queue and receive notifications regarding the progress of the issue.

As for now, enabling File | Settings | Appearance & Behavior | Appearance > Drag-n-Drop with ALT pressed only will work as a workaround - random mouse drags won't do anything unless Alt key is pressed.
