Hi Alexandre,

Thanks for your suggestion. It's a good idea, but not quite the effect I'd
like to achieve. If I understand correctly, the user would have to actually
select the feature first then drag? I'd like the drag to "just work" without
having to click it first.
Unfortunately, I don't have time to try out the code right now (on Sunday
maybe?) but if do figure out how to do this I'll make sure I post it up for
everyone.

Thanks,

James
