I've used both a custom drag and drop widget implementation, and the drag and drop teatures within a tree/list widget. However I have never used the tree/list widget as a workaround for something suited to a custom implementation. I've used the tree/list approach when I am actually using the model to supply the data, and the widget as a way to represent the data. So I can't really comment on your "trick" approach. If it works fine and is easy to maintain and control, then I can't say its a wrong approach. It depends on how many items you will have in the tree/list and whether you see performance issues.
