table drag

Trying to get a bit more discussion to see if this is something people are interested in. At DCBoston the creator of the table-drag.js drupal extension to make all tables drag-and-droppy said it would be cool if there was a way to AJAX update it. Well, I have it working for the book's table and would love to extend my solution into a good one that would provide this functionality to all tabledrag's. Having some issues trying to think of how to make what i've done generic enough w/o having an overarching API for modifying drupal objects via js calls.
