Add button in Asset Browser
New button in the asset browser panel for quick adding selected object/collection.
If the preferences panel > file path > Asset libraries, can enable a default folder for new added assets or ask if no folder is selected
There is a new add-on in BlenderMarket that can do something similar, but the idea is to be integrated
blendermarket.com/products/instant-asset
This way you can export and save individual asset, no the entire scene

Desired behavior is to be able to drag and drop. That was in the original asset browser design and hopefully will be implemented one day
how would you drag n drop from 2d viewport to asset browser ? the other way round sure , but thats gonna conflct with movement of 3d objects
actually assets are embedded in blend files and for this (what you have requested) to be happen blender need to save each asset in a seperate file, this seems convenient at first but this actually breaks the core concept of asset browser as the assets of same category should be present in same catalogue/collection. maybe in future there is a functionality to append your asset in another blend file.
