Follow up of: #2421427: Improve the UX of Quick Editing single-valued image fields

I noticed while testing Quick Edit for single image fields, that the dropzone can be tiny for small images.
If you use drag and drop to place a new image, and you miss the spot you will be navigated away to the dropped image.
This is a very bad user experience.

Shouldn't we activate the whole window as a dropzone (while dragging is active)? By design there will only be one active dropzone at a time so this shouldn't be a problem right?

Example drop zone:

📌 Task
Status

Active
