When you click and drag items their direct manipulation UI and selection indicator stop showing. You can then pixel
perfect place them with a clear view of every pixel they have as there is no overlay getting in the way.

However items such as TouchArea or an Image with no source set become invisible and you have no idea where there
bounds are when moving them. This allows non visible items to still show the selection rectangle while bing dragged.
