Description

The current behaviour of the dropzones when dragging elements around is a bit counterprodutive, since it makes elements jump up and down heavily within their columns.
So instead of creating a large dropzone as a full placeholder at the target position, the zone should overlap the surrounding content elements, ideally without moving them up or down at all.

This can be done easily with negative margins and some transparency as you can see in the attached image.

Depending on the desired behaviour we can have the content move slightly to give the editors a real feeling of movement, or it can stay exactly in place while just creating the enlarged dropzones at the target positions.
