Me too. Besides, how do blind people use drag and drop?

The popularity of drag and drop has always mystified me because it has
terrible mechanics. It's quite hard to hold a mouse button and move the
mouse and hit a target all at the same time. People with disabilities,
small children and the elderly might not be able to do this at all.
