The question would be whether Sortable.serialize will run independent of an
object being declared as a Sortable. Try this:
1. Follow the rules for setting up a Sortable element, but don't actually call
Sortable.create on it. In other words, be sure that it is the correct element
construction (try a UL for the easiest case) and that each element in it is
properly ID'd with string_123 (unique number).
2. Loop through those elements and set up Draggable on each one, and then in
whatever callback Draggable offers for an end of drag event, call
Sortable.serialize('list_id') and see what's in the result.
I am not sure how you get Draggable to do the one other cool thing that
Sortable does -- namely the "scoot out of the way" behavior. A good dive
through the source should let you know if that is a special method within
Sortable or whether it is leveraging another module's native method.
If all this seems to be too much skating uphill, you might want to look through
the source of Draggable (with snap) vs. Sortable, and see if the snap behavior
can be injected into Sortable at runtime with one of the various Rubyisms in
Prototype. (addMethod or extend)
