If you drop a folder, you'll get a dialog box asking you if you want a
link (URL) or a copy; I imagine that would work for other things too.

I do wish OmniOutliner would use aliases instead of URLs for local
files, though, and properly display the icon for a folder/file instead
of the generic document icon.
