After messing around with the JTree and DnD it appears that I can not drag
an element of a tree.  My goal was to allow one branch to be moved to
another or move an entire branch hierarchy.  I made a custom Tree the
implemented the Source and Target but then it only listened to itself.  Best
case was that it would accept it's own component but had no idea where to
put it.  Next I tried to add the listener to a custom TreeNode (extends
DefaultMutableTreeNode) but since it doesn't extend an java.awt.Component it
can't be added as a listener.

1) are there any good packages that people have used that can already
support this
OR
2) do I build it with a custom TreeNode that implements MutableTreeNode and
extends java.awt.Component?

Thanks,
John Moore
