Sorry, I forgot to mention that I am using Qt3 for this (I'm reusing 
some old code). I can see from the Qt4 docs that it's now possible to 
pass a QMimeData to the QDropEvent constructor. So I suppose this will 
have to wait until I get around to porting to Qt4 - unless you know of a 
workaround for Qt3...
