No, I need better control over the look and position of dragged items.

... your repeating of the docs I had already read a dozen times before
pointed me to the fact that I shouldn't catch the drop events in the
*scene* (which doesn't work), but in an *item* (which does work). So the
solution was to create a background QGraphicsRectItem, add it to the scene
and catch and process the drop events there.

Thanks!
