Sortable: Connected sortable intersection detection issues

[wundbread]

I have a nested list structure where every list is connectedWith the other lists via:

$("#main .opened > ul").sortable({connectWith: $("#main .opened > ul")})

Sorting within lists is smooth, as it is between 'peer' lists on the same level. Sorting between levels is significantly more difficult. Dragging from parent->child isn't too bad, but from child->parent it take a considerable amount of 'wiggling' before the parent picks up the item.

It behaves pretty much the same in ff3(linux), opera 9.6(linux), ff2(win), and ie6(win).
