I've been getting emails from my kids teacher all school year with a fair amount of the text off the page and unreadable. I decided to see if it was a problem with Firefox, so I saved the email source to a file on my desktop. Next I opened up Chrome and did a drag and drop to a new tab, still broke. So I loaded up MS Edge and tried to drag and drop the file into a new tab... MS Edge won't accept a drag and drop of a html file to display. Isn't this supposed to be standard browser functionality?

Confirmed.
It's probably something to do with Edge being a don't-call-it-Metro "app", rather than a desktop application. You can't even launch a website in it sensibly if it's not the default - all other browsers work with browser.exe TheUrlToOpen, but Edge requires start microsoft-edge:TheUrlToOpen instead.

Supposedly this is fixed[^] and coming to a build somewhere, someday.

No, that's a different issue. That was a problem with dragging files from Explorer to a file upload control, which was fixed in the November update. This is about dragging HTML files into an empty browser window and displaying them - something that every other browser supports, and Edge still doesn't.

Can't work out whether this is very clever, or a failed double-entendre.

I was going to say something along the lines of just consider who wrote it but that may be making myself a touch too much hostage to fortune!

Nothing "failed" about it, so long as you pronounce the word Sod 'em.

Discussing this is hard to keep KSS - but even Sod'em is just a contraction of [Insert Sister City of Gomorrah]-ise them, so it I'd argue it is still a single-entre. Or possibly not  .
Too clever for my little brain anyhoo

Terrorists lack the necessary equipment that is required for thinking.

Many Americans think Obamanation is an abomination. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Are you saying that many Americans are terrorists?

That was such a leap that I think you've exposed your inner self.

Some of the burgers I have seen in the US are truly terrifying! "Death on a Bun" would be a better product name.

On the other hand, I've had the best burger ever, in a roadside restaurant at highway one outside Big Sur.
