Very cool!

Yes, dragging items is on my todo list for Frescobaldi. Frescobaldi
already couples pdf items two-way with the parsed text, even if you
alter the text, so determining what type of object is being clicked or
dragged can be implemented fairly ease. It could then generate
extra-offset override or tweak commands, or (using a context menu)
commands to change the alignment or direction, etc.

best,
Wilbert
