Yes.

Ok, if you think it is necessary, do it. I think it might be enough to add a 
button in ceditwidget. You select expanding the verse on/off before the drag 
by toggling the button (or the space bar). That might be a lot easier, but 
anyway...
Having a subclass like the one you mentioned might be useful when dragging 
into plugins (kparts) that do not know about the bt drag handling. they will 
simply insert the text of QTextDrag, and they do not care about sub-mimetypes 
(am I right here?).

I made some minor fixes in the dnd code today. works now (e.g. module drag in 
ceditwidget). What else should I do until 0.3final?
I will be away from home next week.
