I think I give a good example in my e-mail : 
http://lists.whatwg.org/htdig.cgi/whatwg-whatwg.org/2010-August/027948.html 
(do Ctrl+F "(function" to find it).
In this e-mail I talk about drag and drop and the fact that for the use 
case where drag and drop operations occur within the same document, the 
dataTransfer object is pointless in my opinion.
