Problem:
When dropping a file (e.g., image) onto a block, the editor currently highlights the block as "Selected" (adds the .ce-block--selected class). This leaves a persistent blue background behind the dropped content, which is incorrect behavior for a drag-and-drop action.
Fix:
Removed forced caret placement: The dragNDrop module was calling Caret.setToBlock(targetBlock) upon drop. This action forces the block to be focused/selected. I removed this call to prevent the block from capturing selection during a drop event.
Ensured Selection Clearing: Added a safety check to explicitly clear block selection (BlockSelection.clearSelection()) after the drop is processed, ensuring a clean state.
Verification:
Verified manually in a reproduction environment.
Result: Dropping a file now correctly inserts/uploads the file without toggling the "Selected" state of the block. No blue background appears.
