Viacheslav Kabanovich commented on JBIDE-16321:
-----------------------------------------------

We can insert jQuery widget to the nearest appropriate place to cursor position. In dnd, that place will be shown, as it is already done in JBIDE-16345 to insert widgets outside of area between < and >.

In general, either if we cannot find an appropriate place, or if the current position may be appropriate, the widget should be dropped at the current position.

1. Page, Dialog. 
Pages should be direct children of <body>. New page should be inserted to the nearest place that has <body> for parent (if <body> is missing then under <html> after <head>).

2. Header, Footer, Panel. 
Page has structure:
<div data-role="page">





</div>
a) header/footer should be inserted to the nearest/current page that still does not have that section, according to the required structure;
b) panel should be inserted into the nearest/current page, into the nearest appropriate place according to the required structure.
If there is no appropriate place for header/footer/panel, show a warning in wizard, but allow to finish at the selected place.

3. All other widgets should be inside panel, header, content, footer.
a) if cursor is outside pages, the widget should be inserted to the content of the nearest page;
b) if cursor is in a page but outside sections, the widget should be inserted to the nearest section, as either its first or its last child, what is the nearest;
c) if cursor is inside a section, insert the widget to the selected position (just out of <>).
If there is no available section for the widget, show a warning in wizard, but allow to finish at the selected place.

> When adding a widget via the jQuery Mobile Palette, we should inject the HTML in a proper place of the page, not just wherever the cursor happens to be. For example a page may be injected only between pages.
