	This class manages the interactive movement of different items (elements,

	1: beginMovement    -> init a new movement
	2: continueMovement -> continue the curent movement
	3: endMovement      -> finish the curent movement

	A movement in progress must finish befor start a new movement. We can know if
	element mover is ready for a new movement by calling isReady().
