68 filled with the data from the drag source, if the data formats supported by
69 the data object match the drag source data format.

72 be overridden to give visual feedback or react in a more fine-tuned way,
73 e.g. by not accepting data on the whole window area, but only a small
74 portion of it. The normal sequence of calls is OnEnter(), OnDragOver()
75 possibly many times, OnDrop() and finally OnData().
