This isn't quite the behavior I want, but it turns out that
pretty much exactly the behavior I do want is already available
by a means so simple and obvious that I may have caused some
degree of brain damage in smacking myself on the forehead:
That cute little text file icon that appears when an article
is selected can be dragged away into a directory in the File
Viewer. Now why didn't I figure that out two seconds *before*
I posted, instead of two seconds *after*?
