Regression
Yes
The script can be dragged and dropped before it is compiled
How to reproduce:
1. Create a new Unity project
2. Create a new C# script
3. Try to quickly drag and drop the script on any GameObject in the Hierarchy
Expected result: You are unable to drag and drop the script before it compiled
Actual: You are able to drag and drop the script on the GameObject before it is compiled and the “Can’t Add Script“ error window appears
Reproducible with: 2021.1.0a6, 2021.3.18f1, 2022.2.6f1, 2023.1.0b3
Not reproducible with: 2020.3.45f1, 2021.1.0a5
Note: Error message "Can't add script component 'NewBehaviourScript' because the script class cannot be found. Make sure that there are no compile errors and that the file name and class name match" could be more specific or the drag and drop action could be unavailable

- SearchExpression strips quotes
- dSYM file is not created during macOS standalone build
- Project Settings panels disappear and do not repaint when entering Play Mode without reloading Domain
- Screen Space Decals ignore Rendering Layer Mask when using OpenGL Graphics API
- Crash on scripting_method_invoke when the Player is build before entering the Play mode in the Editor
Resolution Note:
Unity needs compilation to be done before it can understand which .net classes have been built from the file. So we can't fix that.
