Finally, I started today working on the Next Generation Bitflux Editor.
I surfed around for a good Javascript Widget Library and came across at
domapi. It looks very promising (although i'm not very satisfied with
the attached licence, but we can live with that..) and I started playing
around.

As we want to improve the GUI-Experience, I tried first the dragndrop
feature and it's really cool. See
http://trash.chregu.tv/domapi/examples/label.htm for my first
experiments.

You can drag one box onto another and then the element gets inserted
before this. You can also drag a box to the trash and then it's gone. I
think, this has some real potential. No need for dirty menus, just do
drag'n'drop... The demo above is just a prove of concept, so BXE-NG will
certainly look and work a lot different.

and by the way, it works in IE/win and Mozilla, 'though it looks better
on Mozilla :)
