I have done exactly that in my dragdrop.js (warning, highly modified)... To use that method in my file, set both "ghosting" and "floating" (my proprietary option) to true. Then when you start dragging, it clones the element and attaches it at the document level.
Use at your own risk.

Any ideas to prevent this from happening? I think, a future solution might be to immediately (on startDrag) detach the draggable element from its container and attach it to something like body, but that would involve a lot of changes, I guess.
