[Seaside] Drag and drop between two select's?

I don't think that can possibly work. Select lists are form elements
that some famous browsers even render as native widgets. Absolute
positioning of <option> elements as it is required by the JavaScript
drag-and-drop code will hardly ever work in a cross browser compatible
way.

I suggest that you use an #unorderedList for the drag-and-drop and
apply some decent CSS styles to make it look like a select-list. I
guess it should be fairly easy to make it match the look and
functionality of a select-list.

Exactly the same way you manually render an #unorderedList. Both tags
(<ul> and <select>) essentially support the same protocol with #list:,
#selected:, #callback:, etc. Elements that you specify using #list:
are added automatically, but you always have the possibility to do
your own thing. For details on how to make the callbacks work have a
look at WASelectTag>>#renderListItem:labelled:
