Currently there does not appear to be a way to provide validation of the drag & drop action prior to the OnDrop hook. The result is that the user experience looks as if they are able to drag and drop nodes to places where they should not be able to based on custom logic. It appears there is some logic behind the scenes that provide an icon during the hover of the drag and drop action but the logic determining this icon is not extendable to my knowledge. What I'd like to be able to do is override or extend the logic determines on hover UI feedback of the drag and drop action.  Specifically, for my case, I would like to be able to validate with business logic if the drag and drop action is allowed prior to the OnDrop so invalid actions look something like the below picture. This picture from your demo site shows the feedback provided when you try to drag and drop a node onto itself. It shows a clear icon that suggest the action is not allowed but as I mentioned the logic to produce this result does not appear to be extensible.
