I suppose so. When you drag any file over Safari or Chrome on Mac, the mouse cursor changes to "green circle plus" indicating the file will be added to that destination. https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/OSXHIGuidelines/Pointers.html It's a nice touch, but not required.
