The current implementation of the tree (a.k.a. list) element does not support 
dropping of a dragged item onto a non-container/folder tree item. It should.
There is already a tree level attribute dd-candropbetween to support dropping 
between items. We need a new attribute dd-candroponleaf to enable dropping on 
non-containers.
Note that outliner already supports this option.

I've just wasted weeks of work by choosing to use a tree instead of an outliner. 
You need to get rid of gotchas like this.

This involves a small change to 
nsTreeItemDragCapturer::ComputeDropPosition(aDragEvent, &yLoc, &beforeMe, 
&onMe);

Why not? Is tree/list about to become deprecated? Outliner is certainly not a 
full replacement.
