That's been doable for a while now... the translucency is just a CSS
property, and since all the css properties have been accessible for a
while now in the [element].style collection, it's a trivial matter to
set that value during the drag operation. I've always had problems in
the past with drag operations with javascript being problematic, which
has unfortunately been mostly an issue with the browser, so their
library hasn't fixed it... although the latest version of Firefox does
seem to eliminate the issue. With IE it's still possible to make the
library think you should still be dragging after you've released the
mouse button if you drag and release quickly. Offhand this
particularly library doesn't look especially new -- maybe it's better
than the previous attempts at this (I think domAPI died out), I don't
know. Though as a whole they seem to load slowly, and being pure JS
can't be feasibly used for much in a section 508 compliant site.
