    Default drag object within XZ plane

    i'm trying to make a bare-bones interface for a user to manipulate objects in a
    world. How can i code a mouse drag for any selected object that would be
    constrained to the XZ plane? i would assume this would involve knowing where
    the cursor is intersecting that plane. i will have geometry representing the
    ground at Y=0.
