That's one way that would work. Another way would be to, before processing
each item, iterate through its lineage, somethling like this:
parent = theItem ;
BOOL processThisItem = YES ;
do {
parent = [theItem parent] ;
if ([parent isInTheDroppedArray]) {
processThisItem = NO ;
break ;
}
} while (parent != nil) ;
if (processThisItem) {
...
}
I don't know if it would be any more or less efficient than your original idea.
Probably depends on the "dimensions" of the typical drop.

Yup. No matter how you do it.
