Classification:Enhancement Reproducible:Always
 
Area:
Something not on this list

Summary:
When I launch System Image Utility there is a basic assistant to guide through NetInstall image creation. It assumes install macOS Sierra.app is present in /Application. It would cool if I coud drag&drop installer from custom filesystem location.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch System Image Utility
2. Try to specify source of  install macOS Sierra.app other than /Applications 

Expected Results:
Ability to drag & drop install macOS Sierra.app installer from custom location.

Actual Results:
I am unable to specify  install macOS Sierra.app installer from custom location. Installer is detected only in /Applications

Version:
10.12.5/16F73

Notes:
Creating symlink or Finder alias in /Applications pointing to install macOS Sierra.app in other location does not work.
