Have a look at http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/openmnnd.html , and
the SelectFeature control. (In this case, the 'move' callback).

(The reason for removing the handler directly on the geometries is that
it was creating objects which were significantly larger in memory. I
think the same things can be done with the SelectFeature handler. If
not, please explain, and we'll look into how to work with it.)
