Is Drag-and-Drop on a Menu Item Possible?

Question:
Is drag-and-drop on a menu item possible?

Answer:
If I was going to be rhetorical, I’d answer in very Zen-like terms:”Anything is possible.” But in more practical terms, no, it’s not possible todrag-and-drop on a menu item.

Here’s why: If you want to drag an itemonto a menu, you have to click on the menu to drop it down, or if it’s apop-up, you have to display it. Then, you have to get the item that you wantto drag from some source, which in turn requires another click of somesort. By virtue of a menu’s natural response to clicks outside of itself,the menu would disappear as soon as you clicked on the source.
