Expose dragObject's absolute position

Description

It is useful to know the distance an object has been dragged (for example, using dragging to pan around an image). It would be nice to have a method to obtain these coordinates from the dragObject.

The following snippet works fine, but since dragClone is not in the dnd API, it might eventually break: 

var drag = new dojo.dnd.HtmlDragSource(someDiv, "someDiv");
var target = new dojo.dnd.HtmlDropTarget(otherDiv, ["someDiv"])
dojo.event.connect(drag, "onDragEnd", "showXY");

function showXY (dragEvt) {
  alert([dojo.html.getAbsoluteX(dragEvt.dragObject.dragClone), dojo.html.getAbsoluteY(dragEvt.dragObject.dragClone)]);
}
