 Now that we have click-to-add for available widgets, I think it makes
 sense to disable the drag-and-drop for available widgets on touch devices.
 The interaction tends to cause troubles on touch devices when you intend
 to scroll through the list of widgets, and instead initiate the draggable.

 Since active and inactive widgets don't have any alternative for
 reordering, we can keep the draggable interaction there on touch devices —
 but maybe we should think of a new way of reordering these widgets without
 requiring drag-and-drop.
