When I discovered Rivendell, I was a bit confused that no action could
ever be taken using drag'n'drop (except, iirc, in RDLogmanager, when
creating events). But watching this mailing-list discussing about the
necessity (or not) of this feature, and my usage of the system, I came
to the conclusion that I did not want it. And I was hoping that it would
not appear on future releases.

Our presenters are from all ages. We are a student radio, but some
people are not students anymore. Surprisingly, the "older" people are
not the ones that experience issues using our computers (well, maybe
this article explains a lot :
http://www.coding2learn.org/blog/2013/07/29/kids-cant-use-computers/). I
only mostly "it's buggy" or "it's not working" from the youngest ones
(18 to 25yo), and it is often because a Gnome desktop effect is moving
all the windows, or simply because their USB key is dead, or badly
plugged. Sigh.

Anyway, sometimes I think it is right to be able to say something like :
"I know what is good for you, trust me, you don't need this drag'n'drop
feature". For what I can see, this is much more prone to errors than the
simple "multiple click" pattern that we are used to work with on Rivendell.

So yes, I'm pushing in the other way, and if is possible, it would be
great to simply disable this feature on admin level in a future release.

Currently, there are neat features that showed since 2.6.2, but I won't
upgrade until I have a way to prevent the use of this.

    Hoggins!
