Comment:

 This fails for themes with several sidebars when you try to drag a widget
 from one (open) sidebar or from "Inactive widgets" to a closed sidebar.

 Also, if I remember right, couple of years ago we specifically avoided
 adding "spring-jump" opening of the sidebars while the user is dragging.
 The argument against was that it makes dragging harder.

 I'm 50/50 on whether it is a good thing or not, but if we want it, it will
 have to be fixed to work when dragging between sidebars.
