Changing position of a cue is difficult… #147

Hi! In list view, I discovered that changing the position of a cue in the list is not that easy: You can grab a cue with the mouse and drag it to a new position, but, unfortunately, the line pretending to indicate the new position is 1) not visible that good (it is at least partly covered by the cue you want to move) 2) not really the indicator for the new position.

For 1): Adding transparency for the item to be moved? Or just make it smaller for the time being moved?

For 2): Maybe a QT issue? I used Gnome/Mate/LXDE and often got wrong placed cues when dragging and dropping. Usually it misses the new position by one (blow or above).

I'm aware of this annoying issue, it's mostly a problem of the Qt drag&drop, at least of the widget I'm using.

I'm certain that it can be improved, for example the clementine-player doesn't have this problems using a very similar widget for the song list, but I can tell they've re-implemented a bunch of stuffs (in c++).
