Hi guys,

it's fairly difficult to create a true sortable tree with the jQuery UI
sortables. The basics are there, but there's a lot of work that needs to be
done
in order to work correctly.

That's why we're working on a addition on top of the jQuery UI sortables, to
provide a true tree behaviour, probably a candidate
for a next UI version. The current state can be found at the jQuery UI SVN
at branches/experimental/ui/ui.tree.js.

Hope this helps,
Paul
