The application where the item is dropped is basically responsible for handling the drop. Knowing that a drag that started in your application was dropped in another application is possible (when QDrag::exec() returns, you can check its return value to see if a drop occured) but it won't tell you WHERE it occured. Try dragging a zipped image and drop it on some graphics application - you will see it won't be able to handle the archive (unless it explicitly knows how to handle zipped archives).
