probably much easier would be to simply adjust the drawing of the item itself 
rather than inserting a whole new item and managing the layout issues.

so if this is a "regular" item:

[ icon title ]

a spacer drop would be:

[ ] [icontitle]

the layout would still see it as one item because, well, it would be.

the beauty of this approach is:

* you don't need to coordinate multiple items, each AbstractTaskItem just 
handles its own dragEnter/dragHover/dragLeave events

* the layout is completely uninvolved in the process
