Doesn't work consistently anymore (Sequoia 15.2). Instead of focusing on the file, it moves the file you selected from Finder to the folder shown in the save dialog. It completely breaks the workflow.

Surprisingly, it works as expected one out of ten times. It seems to depend on where on the save dialog you drag the file from Finder. Extremely frustrating!

That's never happened to me. I'm on Sequoia 15.3.1 and just tried it out, and can't get it to move a file at all. It correctly selects the dragged file/folder every time. No matter if I drag it right on top of an existing folder in the open/save dialog. I've just tried with multiple applications.

Definitely seems like a bug. Maybe you have some kind of system extension interfering? Or I hate to tell you to reinstall macOS, but hopefully that would fix it?
