This is an issue with Eclipse. We have an issue filed but I do not
expect them to ever address it. We added a Team -> Copy and Team ->
Export option so that you could copy stuff the right way.
In your scenario, two other options would be to cut and paste the
contents of the file between editors and also to do the drag and drop
from Windows Explorer into Eclipse. The problem is only in the drag
and drop within Eclipse,
