And how does IE7/Vista look, as far as accomodating these patterns? For several months now, my IE6.029 on Windows XP hasn't been able to drag/drop these modules. They move a few mm, then get stuck. The Edit drop-down move functionality also doesn't work. Firefox, and Safari/Mac work fine. Oh wait, now IE is behaving: must have scared it by launching Firefox...

A couple things I'd love to see are a sortable grid and a scrollable content pane. Are there any plans for something like that? I love the YUI – very solid, complete, and easy to use.

Since new AJAX frameworks are released as mushrooms after rain, their use should be much easier. Yes, I would like to see an drag-and-drop example of sortable windows like my.yahoo.com has.

That'll be super for my http://www.stockdigg.com, where users can pick a story tagged with votes and published to the front page, and then drag them to the corresponding stock chart.

Here are two more examples I would like to see 1. Something like my yahoo! Say three columns, for which I would foresee using YAHOO.util.DDTarget. Then chunks in each column, which I started trying with YAHOO.util.DD, but started trying using ygDDSwap, to little avail. 2. Something like a toolbelt on the top with something like my requested example 1 beneath. Drop something from the toolbelt to the containers beneath and a different thing appears. Like a thumbnail on the toolbelt becomes a full picture in the lower container. Guess I am just thinking the more examples the better, and I don't see any of your extant examples that cover the functionality for my examples above. Great work!
