At the first dragging item out of table view is very natural in my case.
I don't think that dragging out is not natural solution. It is used by Apple in many cases. In my case deleting a row is very dangerous and rare operation, and I want to make it embarrassing. Furthermore there are will be panel with confirmation.

At the second, I want to satisfy my curiosity :)
I don't believe that nobody here knows how to do that.

If you just want the row to be deleted, then it's probably a better idea to make the application work consistently with other applications, and assign an action to the Delete key that removes the data from the source. In most cases, drag & drop is for copying or moving data, not deleting it...

Another option would be to support drag-to-trash for deleting list items. In most cases this seems to be the more natural solution for me. Not sure how you detect a drag to the trash in Cocoa, but it's possible in Carbon, so it ought to be available in Cocoa as well.
