Since drag and drop has been dragged out of ARIA, I'm not sure how to best implement accessible drag and drop. Does anyone have any suggestions, examples, links, etc.?

I dont have a specific suggestion yet, but I will be heading into a project of this type very soon. I am needing to implement the ability to reorder form fields in a mobile app that is built with javascript. There will be a heavy reliance on iOS voiceover since most of our users are blind or have impaired vision.

Maybe something that allows for bumping items up or down by one and also move to top or bottom?

I will be following along if you find some things out for your project.

Thanks
Jeff
