You have to subscribe to the particular content type so it
doesn't always work but it is totally doable.
You can play with it using simpledisplay.d's drag and drop
support.
but maybe they have overcome this because of Chrome OS. No, I
don't use it, except for file uploads.
Web drag and drop actually dates back to IE 5. It has been
cleaned up a little since then and now prefers mime types to the
type enum it used to do (though both still tend to work) but it
isn't actually all that different.
Yes, it does. You get lots of graphic context switches and poor
render-caching performance.
no not really.
you'd have to be really incompetent to do it this wrong.
