Research direction
The issue reports that the cursor changes from 'grabbing' to default when dragging starts, despite hovering showing 'grabbing'. The reproduction is at http://jsbin.com/newize/1/edit?html,js,output. To fix, inspect the Sortable.js source code for cursor style assignments in drag event handlers (e.g., onDragStart, onMove). Look for missing or conflicting CSS rules or inline styles. Consider adding or persisting the 'grabbing' cursor during the drag operation via CSS class or element style.
