Did you have a look at the sortable plugin linked to in the original issue?

[lc-thomasberger]

No, I have not seen this. Looks good, will have to test it.

@taylortom This makes use of a library. It works pretty well on IE but I am not so sure about how frequently it gets maintained.
I have not tested implementing the snippet.

What do others think? Does it make sense to add another library for drag-and-drop that is currently only used by the editor?

[taylortom]

Yeah, good point. I'll look into how easy it is to do this with jQuery UI.

Have done a prototype here

[tomgreenfield]

Love the draggable prototype, @taylortom. Default values, reset button and printing of nested objects need close attention.

[lc-thomasberger]

@taylortom yes this is very nice. I made some styling tweaks:

• added a drop-placeholder
• styled the dragged element
• limit drag-direction in y axis

Happy to commit or PR this into your PR. We can also make your PR as the base and add the duplicate feature.
