Title:
  z-order weirdness when dragging ListItems

Status in ubuntu-ui-toolkit package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  ListItems in a ListView start off with a z of 1.  When you start
  dragging them, they get a z of 2.  This causes two bits of weirdness:

  1) Section headers in the ListView also have a z of 2.  (See
  http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-qtquick-listview.html#section-prop)  This
  causes inconsistent layering of the dragged item relative to headers.
  Sometimes it appears above the headers, sometimes below.  I haven't
  found a rhyme or reason to which occurs when, but I can eliminate the
  problem by reducing the z index of the headers.  A better solution, in
  my mind, would be to increase the z index of items while they are
  being dragged.

  2) The z index of items is not reset when the drag ends.  I haven't
  noticed any problems caused by this in my testing, but this is the
  sort of unexpected behavior that is almost guaranteed to cause
  confusion down the line.

  This is seen the the current stable image (r1 on flo).
