I don't see a end-user way, but here is what you could do:

The behavior you want comes when the flap is a PartsBin (a class) rather than a regular PasteUpMorph with the parts bin attribute set. So you could

- hack the flap creation code to use a PartsBin instead of a PasteUpMorph in certain cases

or

- hack PasteUpMorph>>morphToDropFrom: to use the code from the PartsBin implementation in certain cases.
