First I don't care if the VCL is too restrictive or what Delphi in
general does. This is not a Delphi list. Second if you think that
some LCL classes are too restrictive you can always change them (as
you have the source) and provide a patch. If your argument is
reasonable the Lazarus developers will surely apply your patch.
When I wanted to implement an alternative DragManager, I found this
almost impossible outside of the Controls unit, due to very many
references to protected members of TControl and TWinControl. Do you
honestly believe that all these members will ever be made public, only
for the sake of another DragManager implementation?
Hint: look at the many patches I already supplied, and how many of them
have been accepted :-(
