Hi Sebb, Thanks for the feedback!
I think I know the issue you're talking about. This is a very early and very simple prototype, so it doesn't do some things that you might expect it to do with respect to drag-and-drop behaviour. Specifically, events are only captured by the square/circle elements themselves, and not by the underlying SVG canvas. This means that if you move the mouse too quickly, so that the mouse leaves the square/circle element and hovers over the canvas, then events will not be passed to the square/circle element. The way I've solved this in the past is to set up an interaction between the statecharts for the SVG canvas and the in-focus SVG element. This can get a bit complex, though, and in an effort to keep the first few examples simple, I decided to leave that part out. This is definitely something that will be added in the near future, however, as it has been addressed in previous prototypes. Adding in support for Opera is on my to-do list as well. So far, I haven't been aggressive about targeting it because it doesn't seem to work with Selenium-RC, which I rely on heavily for unit testing. But this is definitely something that needs to happen, especially before SVG Open, as there are a lot of Opera people there.
