Now I think about it that probably does cover most cases well enough -
I was thinking about cases where you have nodes selected at multiple
levels - it's perhaps similar to the delete logic, if a higher level
(left most) node is selected, you can ignore any selections on lower
level (right most) nodes, as they should be dragged along with the
ancestor.
