           Summary: There does not seem to be a way to cancel a drag and
                    drop operation at a point later than when `dragenter`
                    fires. Often it is useful to be able to cancel it when
                    the draggable item is dropped, when you know where it
                    is being dropped. I think it would be g

Comment:
There does not seem to be a way to cancel a drag and drop operation at a point
later than when `dragenter` fires. Often it is useful to be able to cancel it
when the draggable item is dropped, when you know where it is being dropped. I
think it would be great if there was a way to cancel the action, like when you
use the escape key, from script.
