This is the first step toward a formal proposal in the feature voting system.

Currently, you can drag and a folder from your inventory on your avatar and you'll wear all the items in the folder AND REMOVE EVERYTHING YOU WERE WEARING.

I propose a different behaviour to be adopted if a modifier key (Shift? Ctrl? Alt?) is being pressed while dragging and dropping:
  1. Items in the folder will replace existing items worn, but other attachments/clothes won't be affected. I.e. I can drag a drop a shoes' folder on my avatar and I will end up with the shoes and my existing dress, currently I would end up naked with the new shoes only.
  2. If I drag and drop onto an object (by error), nothing will happen. I know a few who ended up putting stuff into some of their builds' inventories instead of themselves, due to drag and drop errors. This would prevent it.
