The Project window does not support drag reordering (as the built in Listbox does)...but it does support internal drag and drop along drop destination hi-lighting (which currently isn't support by a list box and is made difficult to implement since an RB app cannot respond to events while a drag is taking place). Which makes it possible to move items within that hierarchical list into different folders.

So, basically, what I need either:
a) Support for drag-reordering in hierarchical list boxes directly.
or
b) The ability to have events fire during a drag so that I can create this functionality myself.

There are two classes out there that sort-of accomplish this: HierListBox (which is GPL and, hence, all but useless to me) and ViewThing (which doesn't have any docs and I can't get it to work).
