 * Subclasses should implement the
 * {@link AcceptCriterion#accept(com.vaadin.event.dd.DragAndDropEvent)} method.
 * <p>
 * As all server side state can be used to make a decision, this is more
 * flexible than {@link ClientSideCriterion}. However, this does require
 * additional requests from the browser to the server during a drag operation.
