Alright, now I figured it out.. I had earlier tried using ui.item = $
('<div>Hello world</div>'), but that didn't work, because what i
needed to do was:

ui.item.html('<div>Hello world</div>');
or
ui.item.replace('<li><div>Hello world</div></li>');

Thank you for pushing me in the right direction, but I still had to
pull a little help from #jquery-ui :)

Yours sincerely
Steen Nielsen
