Hi Nicolaas,

Glad to hear that you need that functionality too.  We actually have done
similar things to the Shindig Gadget
Container<http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/shindig/trunk/javascript/container/>.
We have added drag-and-drop and a column layout manager that supports any
number of columns.  The code has been in use for a couple of months and will
be checked in in a couple of days.  Just so that you know.

Thanks!
