Passing "accept" option through a Sortable

Hi All,

I'm attempting to tweak Scriptaculous 1.5R4 to provide the ability to  
pass the "accept" option through the Sortable.create(...) call to the  
enclosed Droppable(s).  I'm far from a JavaScript expert  
(Scriptaculous & AJAX have convinced me to finally start learning),  
so I'm kinda fumbling in the dark here.

Thus far I've made two minor changes to 'dragdrop.js':

  o Added 'accept:   options.accept' to  
'options_for_droppable' (line 395)
  o Added 'accept:   options.accept' to the metadata for handling  
dropOnEmpty (line 409)

Things work OK, except for the following case:

1.  There are two lists
2.  List #1 contains one items with CSS class "capitalized" and  
another with CSS class "lower"
3.  List #2 will only accept items with CSS class "capitalized".
4.  Drag the "capitalized" item from #1 to #2, which (correctly) gets  
accepted.
5.  Try to drag the "lower" item from #1 to #2, and we see the  
trouble.  The droppables surrounding the items that were originally  
in list #2 won't accept it, but the droppables surrounding the item  
that was previously in list #1 **will** accept it.

So, it seems like I'm almost there, but not quite.  Any suggestions  
as to what to do to make dropped items get the correct 'accept'  
option? Attached a basic HTML page I've been using to play around  
with it.


TIA,

Peter
