Sortables

[bryan]

Hopefully I can explain this correctly:

When using a sortable that's longer than the height of the browser window, scrolling down to drag a list item near the bottom up produces unexpected behavior. Instead of grabbing the item that the cursor is above, it grabs an item above it that's the same distance away as the distance scrolled. Meaning that the farther you scroll, the more pronounced the error becomes. It pretty much makes sorting anything near the bottom of the given list impossible.

I have attached some screenshots, hopefully they illustrate the problem effectively.

I was not able to reproduce this with a simple test page (see attached). If you can create a simple test page that demonstrates the issue, please reopen and attach. Thanks.

It seems like the error is in the latest Webkit builds, as I watched my fiance do the same thing in the current version of Safari without any problems.
