Does anyone know of any good category/folder trees with drag and drop functionality? Ideally it would use a lightweight JS framework like jQuery so it's easy to extend. I have been looking for several hours but could only find a few near-hits but not anything I could use as-is:

YUI implementation using RoR: http://sonjayatandon.com/08-2006/how-to ... a-yui-tree
YUI implementation specific for ZenCart: http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?main_ ... cts_id=236
Custom JavaScript (not using any frameworks): http://www.dhtmlgoodies.com/index.html? ... older-tree
JQuery implementation but without directory folding: http://www.bernardopadua.com/nestedSort ... st/widget/
Mootools version also without dir folding: forgot the link
Simple custom JavaScript version: http://www.xs4all.nl/~peterned/blog/sorttree.html (example - does not seem to be supported for real applications)
Dojo tree (still checking this one out internally, it does look pretty clean): http://willcode4beer.com/pages/ware/dojo/progTree.html for the demo and http://willcode4beer.com/ware.jsp?set=dojoTreeWidget for a manual
