    If I recall correctly, Word does a cut and paste. I think it might be
    useful, though, to maybe do an explorer-esque popup menu if you drag
    with right mouse (with, say, copy, move, link (or something), or
    cancel). This would seem more natural to me, but let the more qualified
    people discuss and decide!
