Hi,
in GeoFence is possible to manage rules priority using drag and drop, this 
functionality was implemented using the library wicket-dnd 
(https://github.com/svenmeier/wicket-dnd).
After the Apache Wicket 7 upgrade the wicket-dnd library was also upgraded to a 
version that supports Apache Wicket 7, but the drag and drop functionality was 
not working.

Long story short, the drag and drop in GeoFence is not working because of the 
JQuery version used by GeoServer.  Apache Wicket 7 and the wicket-dnd use 
JQuery 1.11.3 but GeoServer still includes JQuery 1.2.6.

To fix the drag and drop issue the version of JQuery imported by GeoServer 
needs to be upgraded to JQuery 1.11.3.

Looking for imports of JQuery library under geoserver/src returns the following 
paths:

./web/core/src/main/java/org/geoserver/web/GeoServerBasePage.html
./web/demo/src/main/java/org/geoserver/web/demo/PlainCodePage.html
./web/core/src/main/java/org/geoserver/web/wicket/CodeMirrorEditor.js
./web/core/src/main/java/org/geoserver/web/wicket/GeoServerTablePanel.html
./extension/wps/web-wps/src/main/java/org/geoserver/wps/web/SubProcessBuilder.html

None of this files is directly using JQuery for doing something, at the 
exception of CodeMirrorEditor all the imports of JQuery exists only because of 
the plugin inline-info. 
Besides, in file CodeMirrorEditor the code that uses JQuery is commented.

The inline-info plugin is located in:
./web/core/src/main/java/org/geoserver/web/js/jquery.inline-info.js

and the source code for this plugin is available at:
https://github.com/chrispatterson/jquery-inline-info

This plugin is used to show tips to user directly in the input fields, when the 
user clicks in the input field the tip is removed allowing the user to enter 
the data.
Even if this plugin is imported by several files it is only used in 
GeoServerBasePage (to show username and password tips in the login fields) and 
in 
GeoServerTablePanel (to show the tip Search in the filter field).

Sadly the inline-info plugin has not been updated in the last years and don't 
support JQuery 1.11.3.

So, if I didn't miss anything upgrading the JQuery 1.2.6 included by GeoServer 
to JQuery 1.11.3 can be resumed to find an alternative to the inline-info 
plugin.

I have tree possible solutions for this:

- Check if apache wicket 7 provides the same functionality as the inline-info 
plugin out of the box.
- Find a JQuery 1.11.3 plugin alternative.
- Change this inline-info plugin source to be compatible with JQuery 1.11.3 
(not very difficult).

Any comments on this are welcome :)

Best regards,

Nuno Oliveira
