Izzy, while it isn't direct drag and drop, you could write an
applescript which grabbed the Finder selection and created bookmarks
for the files.

set _selectionData to {}
tell application "Finder"
set _selectedFiles to selection as list
repeat with _file in _selectedFiles
copy {name of _file, URL of _file} to end of _selectionData
end repeat
end tell

tell application "Yojimbo"
repeat with _itemData in _selectionData
make new bookmark item with properties {name:item 1 of _itemData,
location:item 2 of _itemData}
end repeat
end tell
