investigate why a new connection is created after drag

[GoogleCodeExporter]

upon successfully dropping a dragged connection, the source then discards that 
connection and creates a new one:

https://github.com/sporritt/jsPlumb/blob/master/js/1.4.0/jsPlumb-1.4.0-RC1.js#L2
517

this issue is here to remind me to figure out why this is necessary. it would 
be better if it were not. amongst other things, it is confusing for people 
using a beforeDrop callback, as they assume that the connection they are given 
will be the one that ends up getting added to the UI.  so if you change 
something on this connection during beforeDrop, those changes then disappear.

Stumbled upon this while trying to pass arguments using setParameters() and 
getParameters() on drag and before drop. It's nasty.

update: this only happens with the makeTarget method of configuring a target. 
it does not happen on an endpoint that is a target.

Issues have all moved to Github.  Google code is no longer in use for jsPlumb.
