Comment (by kovshenin):

 Okay plugin's attached. Now in order to grab the visual editor in the DOM
 we need to go through an iframe, so the getDocumentById for drop_element
 will not work. To get the plugin working you will need to:

  * Open wp-includes/js/plupload/plupload.html5.js
  * Search for drop_element and remove the call to k.getElementById that
 surrounds it so that it says `var r=(p.settings.drop_element);`
  * Save and preview in an HTML5 enabled browser, preferably Chrome

 There are two places in plupload.html5.js to replace but replacing the
 first occurrence should be enough. Make sure that you backup the file
 first, although for some reason this doesn't seem to break the existing
 drag and drop :)

 Let me know if you have any questions, thanks!
