1. I don't find it to be slow in my computer. In fact I have tested to open
the same folder full of shapefiles both in QGIS browser and Arccatalog 9.3,
and I can second Paolo experience. ArcCatalog hangs a bit before showing
the files and previewing, while QGIS Browser seems instant;
2. You are right, it does not allow one to rename files;
2. It DOES allow drag and drop to the QGIS Desktop (I have just tested).

Would the "Legambiente Comitato Regionale Siciliano" consider sponsoring
the needed changes? Rename files seems a nice feature to have.
