Reproducible also when drag&drop files in project view with slightly different
stacktrace:

java.lang.NullPointerException

This is a JDK problem reported as

Closing as invalid here.

I think we would not release with this issue. Is it possible to make some hack
in ide? 
How can users believe to ide when it throws exceptions after such simple thing
like drag&drop? :)
