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!
