Wish I had the definitive response here. Instead I'll offer a
resource you may not have been aware of.
Last week's SOUPS papers may give you some further ideas of security
risks, user behavior related to security and privacy, and usability of
various security schemes.
I am one of two interaction designers at a hardware company, and am
curious about the interaction design teams who work at software

If it's a more formal website or something with a serious tone (such

Not too long ago Google added the ability to move your emails into labels
via drag and drop functionality. As a result, they added two rows of dots to

Does anyone know if that is in fact the ideal pattern for that kind of tool?

You need somewhere to click in order to drag something, and since in
many cases clicking on the text does something else (opening the email
in gmail) a drag handle is handy (as it wereg),
