ok here are my screenshots on how it looks so far. I have been trying
to make it work to some extent and thus took some more time posting
the screen shots :(.

Mimi - to be specific, I am looking for feedbacks on this group
management interface. It is supposed to be the group management UI for
Cosmo administrators.

Checkout the second and third screenshots on how drag is implemented.
The second screen shot shows a mouse over on the list elements - I
wanted to make it stand out so that a user can feel its draggable. We
should probably also have  some other indication(s) saying that its
draggable.

Recently we had some discussions on removing the update button and
updating the list dynamically without clicking the update button. This
can happen throughout the ui, where instead of pressing a button (like
for saving events) it could be updated dynamically - the way it
happens in Chandler. But since it does not happen that way, I assume
that there was some design thoughts and so would like to know the best
way we could handle this drag update..

maybe we should also paginate the groups/users in this modify dialog
(both on the left and right side), but that would complicate the
design.

If any of you can think of other approaches or more constructive
comments on making this draggable approach work, please reply.

Its not related to preview in any way - but I would like to see it
sometime soon in Cosmo, based on how well my ACL work proceeds.  This
group work can be extended in many forms and I plan to code later in
my free time :). so more design suggestions about other possible
things are welcome.
