Interesting approach. While reading your article, an idea occurred to
me. Why not simply offset the dragged item to be a few pixels below the
cursor as soon as the drag begins. Then you don't have the empty box in
the middle, you don't need to create 4 divs, and you still get the
benefit of triggering DOM events like you want.
You certainly could do as you suggest and it was part of my
prototyping. It may produce satisfactory user experience in some
situations. The most important part is preserving the native browser
events and avoiding looping.
