Hi,

I have just implemented dragdrop from a custom control and in IE this seems to 
work pretty much out of the box by just calling setDroppable and setDraggable 
icw some drag events.

In several other browsers I kept getting the "invalid drag" cursor and was able 
to locate the issue in the "qx.event.handler.DragDrop" code where extra events 
are registered in _onMouseMove during the drag operation. The logic that checks 
if the operation is valid is located in the mouseover event, but this event is 
not triggered in many browsers.

As a workaround I implemented a mouse move on my own control and forwarded the 
event to the drag drop handler like this:

  var mgr = 
qx.event.Registration.getManager(this).getHandler(qx.event.handler.DragDrop);
  if (mgr) {
      var target = null;
      var fEl = this.__innnerControl.getFocusElement();
      if (fEl) {
          target = fEl.getDomElement();
      }

      var event = qx.event.Registration.createEvent("mousemove", 
qx.event.type.Mouse, [{}, target, target, false, true]);

      // Fake the mouse-over event on the DragDrop handler to set private 
property "__validDrop" to true
      mgr._onMouseOver(event);
  }

Where the __innerControl is my own control and I do this on all non-mshtml 
browsers. Now it works perfectly, but I don't think I should have to do this. 
What are your ideas on this? I'm using Qx version 1.4.1 by the way and looking 
at upgrading to the current version so I don't know if this is already fixed 
there.

Best regards,
Jeroen
