Does anybody know of any good ways of coding a hands-free interface to a webpage that has drag and drop movable modules?

Thanks,

When I looked for an accessible drag & drop I found nothing worth
implementing - only ARIA will work well. You can use context menus but they
are visual and programming mess.

ARIA probably is the best bet right now. But, depending on the use-case there might be other methods of providing the same functionality that isn't drag and droppy.
