Hey, what about this:

Let's say you have a text editor with an unsaved file.

From a file-manager window, you drag the folder you want the text file to be saved in. While dragging, a the folder's icon appears (50%-transparently) at the mouse pointer.
As soon as you move the mouse above the text editor window the folder will enlarge to the size of the window. When dropping, the file is saved into the folder.

This would make it quite clear that the file is saved into the folder and not the other way round.
