How do you use jQuery's .draggable to drag a table cell?

Question

In this Fiddle I want to make a jQuery or Javascript interaction that will allow me to drag the first table cell (Name) and pull it out. .draggable seems to only work with divs. Is there a solution or should i give up on trying to make a UI using tables? http://jsfiddle.net/4XyzJ/33/
