I'm thinking the same, though it then seems wrong to me.

Maybe HTML::Dynamic::DragDrop? Or maybe (the acronym soup for
dinner version) HTML::DHTML::DragDrop, which is a tad shorter.

Well, actually it's really "drag'n'drop", but DragNDrop looks
more than a little ugly, DragnDrop looks awkward.

Heh, it *could* actually be ::Drag'N'Drop! (Which is the same as
Drag::N::Drop. C.f. the "D'oh" module.) But, that's not probably
a good idea for "real" code.

DragAndDrop looks and sounds a little awkward.. probably DragDrop
then.
