Yes, that would be very nice.

Does anybody know the state of Emacs' mouse dragging support for
something like this?  Do we still need to...  er...  bind down-mouse-1
and then write all the code to do stuff outselves with track-mouse?  Or
has Emacs grown some more high-level code to bind dragging events?

I tried looking around a bit, but didn't see anything obvious, but I may
well be missing something.
