Don't store it as a custom property on the object -- it's not that  
permanent. It would be more than enough to store an array with the id  
of the object as the key. That would make it live session-long. Some  
development environments I work in don't even do that -- they just  
store the list of called-out variables/expressions for the duration  
of the session, without regard to what script is running. That  
actually proves sufficient for most of my purposes.

Dragging is okay I suppose, but double-clicking is faster and easier.  
It's a simple command -- add this to the list. I don't need to be  
able to specify _where_ in the custom list it goes. It would be nice  
to be able to reorder the custom list if I wanted to, but generally  
it is short enough that it doesn't matter.
