Website template layout editor with jQuery

This is just a project announcement. As part of my Glacier CMS, I will be creating a website template layout editor using jQuery for the front end and ColdFusion on the back end to save the layout in an XML format.
This XML format will then be read by the CMS to generate the edit-page interface with multiple wysiwygs.
My hope is that it will be generic enough for others to use.
Now... to research drag-and-drop with jQuery!

Ah... here we go. Good old jQuery UI. At least it's basically standard! Draggable, droppable AND resizeable. Perfect!

And to find a name!
