Ah, right, simple solution.

So, under the line, for data tables which are already saved before and added to the project, dragging a data table into "contents" is equivalent to "save as" / Project contents.

To use the drag & drop for a data table which is not yet saved, one has to save the table (somewhere else) and then drag it into the Contents area ; )
