Drag 'n' drop is cool. What I'd say though is that we took the jQuery UI route - you get more than just the sortable component without too much fuss - and you get something that while larger, it is better battle-hardened/tested and likely won't require you to do too much of your own support for it. It's not like you need to include it every page or anything, just the pages you need it in.

Another benefit to jQuery UI is that you can use its CDN.

html5sortable doesn't support nested lists, so it's not suitable .. I'd go with jQuery UI, 'cause it's widely used, active developement, and we could probably use some of the other features, too.

Yes, droppy good. I'd tend to jQuery UI. It's actively developed, known, and the many small tools would be fine were they the best for the job, which doesn't seem to be the case of any.

Now we have jQuery UI, so this can go!
