The fact that the setting is buried in the Inspector panel tells me
that iWeb, from Apple's perspective, is intended for small websites
with a handful of top-level sections that get their own navigation
links.  The left-sided sidebar only allows for only three levels of
depth: Site, Page, and a restricted set of sub-pages (i.e. Photos,
Blog, My Albums, and Podcast).  There is no "nesting" of pages,
unlike the file system which allows for files & folders within a
folder, within another folder, within another folder, etc.

I drag images into iWeb from Finder windows without any problems.
