  Sadly, it seems there's no public means of supporting drag and drop
with a collection view. However, if you subclass NSCollectionView, you
may be able to do your own legwork (since it's laid out in a
predictable grid) and calculate the drop point then re-index your
model based on that.

  In a few weeks time, I might go that route with a new in-house
project. If I develop anything I'm not ashamed of, I'll post it on
cocoadev.com. :-) In the meantime, hopefully someone (
cocoadevcentral.com? ) will come up with something better. That'd save
some effort.
