To anyone who was interested in this, I released another version (1.2)
today to fix a pretty significant bug that was created in the previous
release. The "dragProxy" event property was being set late causing
incorrect behavior.

Could you be a bit more specific why this should be preferred over
jQuery UI's drag plugin, apart from your file-size argument? After
all, a lot of effort has been spent on the UI components, they are
fast, heavily customizable and very stable. Why should I start with a

Thanks Mike for clarifying. It certainly would be interesting to know
if jQuery UI could, with the 1.2.6 performance improvements, implement
the ui.mouse stuff as custom events.

I always told myself I had no interest in making a drag and drop
plugin, but found a repeated code pattern in my own work, and had to
explore making it re-usable. If people are happy with jQuery UI
draggable and droppable, which is great, keep using it. I have found
these drag events to be very us

If there are conceptual reasons that this is preferred over jQuery UI's
drag/drop, it probably makes sense to see if those concepts could be added
to jQuery UI. jQuery UI's draggables are actually implemented modularly, so
you can remove a fair bit of the extra functionality and be left with some
