Summary No way to select and move non-editable elements nested inside editing hosts

When an element, such as a div, is nested inside a contenteditable div, there is no way to select the element as one and move it around the editing host. This is noncompliant with the HTML 5 specification draft, which requires a mechanism for this behaviour. The consequences of this are a major loss of editing functionality as well as noncompliance with HTML 5. I suggest a fix by either (preferred) allowing the element to be moved about seamlessly, such as a user might move an image or text box across a page in a page layout app, or utilize a drag-and-drop mechanism, where the user would initiate a drag operation and the element would only be moved to the new position once the user has lifted the mouse bottom.
