That's great. It will be an oportunity to refactor some of the code that does 
more than one thing and is a mess like you said.

VPL is a mess currently. I would happily change things but I think it's not 
worth it before kdom, if happens. Rigth now it's not easy.

What I add was a couple of drag and drop methods and some others to copy and 
move the items, which arent't VPL specific but node tree specific. Oh, and 
there one or two if conditions to check if we are in VPL, but it will be 
dificult to get rid of those in all kinds of places without AOP.

Sure, I'm used to only commit VPL stuff and I forgot... I have the most 
pleasure in having you reviewing my patches ;)
