The custom cell I'm using is a modification of "ImageAndTextCell" from the 
DragNDropOutlineView sample project.  In that class they have some comments 
that describe how "hitTestForEvent:inRect:ofView:" works.  It's my 
understanding that if I return anything other than NSCellHitTrackableArea a 
drag should be initiated.  Here is my implementation of that method and I'm 
still not having any luck:

- (NSUInteger)hitTestForEvent:(NSEvent *)event inRect:(NSRect)cellFrame 
ofView:(NSView *)controlView 
{
    return NSCellHitContentArea;
}
