I find the new text is quite hard to understand, how about saying

    Each handler function is called with the URL that matched it and one
    of the symbols @code{copy}, @code{move}, @code{link}, @code{private}
    or @code{ask} identifying the action to be taken.

    @cindex dnd-multiple-handler, a symbol property
    If the handler function is a symbol whose property
    @code{dnd-multiple-handler} is non-@code{nil} (@pxref{Symbol
    Properties}), then it is given a list of every URL that matches its
    regexp as the first argument instead.

?
