It needs not only the drag data but also needs window handles (on
xorg) and it needs to intercept mouse and keyboard events (on windows)
to give visual feedback during the drag and determine when to drop and
needs to fire events in the widgets that are involved. Since all this
is highly GUI related stuff  and *all* cross platform widgetset APIs
(GTK, Qt) provide a convenient and complete platform independent API
for it I don't see why one should not prefer these APIs over the
native ones.
