Is there an existing issue for this?

I have searched existing issues and this bug hasn't been reported yet

Current behavior

When I drop a postman collection in the Import or create a collection sidebar, it opens up this white text view of the json and there's no way to navigate back or do anything.
I just have to close and re-open again.

Also, highly suggest to make cmd + w to close the request tabs instead of closing the whole app.
(might be the biggest factor for me to make a switch)

Text View (that opens up after I dnd the collection json in the sidebar)

Sidebar

Steps to reproduce

Drag and Drop any postman collection json to the sidebar

Logs and Screenshots
