After mucking around, I discovered that it might still be possible to delegate dragevents. Through the very helpful helper option for a draggable. Although the current version of the UI library is buggy, the latest trunk version seems to be working. If you supply a helper function instead of the usual "clone" or "original", the helper function is passed two arguments, the element to be dragged (which I will ignore, it is the container) and the DOM event (mousedown) which in turn I can use to determine the real draggable through the target property.
