With a small change in the Spec code base (to not sort by default, but

Cool. Thank you.

Still the fact that the passenger does only know the object's string
representation is a problem. Because in a real application i would not
display strings and integers in the lists, but my domain objects. And
already with this example it does not work: you convert the string to an
integer when it leaves list1 - but of course a user might drag it back from
list2 to list1 - and here you can no longer convert it as you do not know if
the dragged object is a string or an integer�

Why does the passenger only know an object's string representation? Can this
be changed?

This should be changed, but this is to be fixed in Morphic,
and since it�s not breaking anything in Pharo (so far),
it will be changed in early 4.0
