The cursor feedback being given in Drag & Drop is in transition right
now - it should be settled by mid-week.
There has been some regression on Mac and Linux that I'll correct
soon -- the dragging still works OK but the feedback you get from the
cursor about whether you are doing a move versus a copy is wrong on
those platforms, and there are some drawing artifacts.
I like the way it works on PC - now we can show different cursors
when dragging over different individual items. I updated the Sidebar
with my stab at some reasonable behavior, but we need to review this
with Mimi and Alec. E.g I hope we can do a little "trash" cursor for
the Trash.
Here's what the Sidebar currently does on PC:
* regular collections - the "copy" cursor
* Trash collection - the "move" cursor
* Views (or and non-collection) - the "no" cursor
* white space - the "no" cursor
* a collection that already contains all the dragged items - a
"check" cursor
The "check" cursor is a new one I added, the other three are the
standard cursors displayed by the platform.
