   * Simulate drag of a JQuery UI sortable list
   * Repository: https://github.com/mattheworiordan/jquery.simulate.drag-sortable.js
   * Author: http://mattheworiordan.com
   *
   * options are:
   * - move: move item up (positive) or down (negative) by Integer amount
   * - dropOn: move item to a new linked list, move option now represents position in the new list (zero indexed)
   * - handle: selector for the draggable handle element (optional)
   * - listItem: selector to limit which sibling items can be used for reordering
   * - placeHolder: if a placeholder is used during dragging, we need to consider it's height
   * - tolerance: (optional) number of pixels to overlap by instead of the default 50% of the element height
   *
