Oh ok. One problem I've had in the past (on win32) was that might be relevent is that some apps eg. ie4 use one drag command (eg. link) while others use another (eg. netscape uses Copy). Even more confusingly sometimes the same app uses different commands in different places. This caused a lot of headaches when I was trying to do DnD from some Java code.
