Description
In Moodle 1.7 it is possible for a teacher, in edit mode, to drag and drop the blocks. I suggest that it would improve the interface accessibility if, when moving the mouse over a block's title div, the default cursor changed to "move" cursor, to indicate this drag and drop potentiality.
This could be done in file \blocks\moodleblock.class.php, around line 262, by adding this:
$title = '<div class="title" style="cursor: move;">';
It might even be better to add the "move" cursor to the whole of the block, but I don't know how to do it.

PS The same result would be achieved by adding the following to the theme's css:
.editing .sideblock .header {
cursor:move;
}
However, it would mean the theme would not be backward-compatible with Moodle versions previous 1.7
Hi Joseph,
Are you referring to the AJAX-Topics course format? http://docs.moodle.org/en/Roadmap#Version_1.7_-_Expected_September_2006
I haven't had time to look at this yet, and unfortunately am still busy, but it sounds like a great idea.
Thanks
Nick
