Would some sort of dynamic table JS stuff be useful?
Like buttons to move up/down/copy/delete rows...

I have some basic functions for that but they're not
in module format at the moment.

I would like these tools, but for divs.

The primary thing i would like to be able to implement is
rulesets.

IE: think of the interface to filter incoming mail in your
mail client.

You add constraints, and each constraint has several
paramaters /  
it's own
form.

I suppose they could be abstracted or simplified to
operating on a dom 
"parent" element so many levels up the tree...

at which point you can use them for block placement too.

With well structured xhtml...


moving nodes horizontally (at the same depth of the tree),
and moving
them up and down  to different depths of the tree... can
take on some
fun meaning.. and probably all sorts of fun writing css
for...

So you could move div.row around other div.rows....
or mov div.row div.col up the tree to be the container for
the
div.rows...

go back to chasing drunk monkeys now..

Although, if it becomes generic enough we might be better
off using one 
of the existing js apis.
