jQuery sortable - disable single item

I have a few lists with draggable elements. When the user moves any element to a new place $.ajax is called so the server can record the element's change in position. While I can disable sorting for the whole list, I really only want to disable sorting for the moved element until $.ajax receives a success message.

update: function(event, ui) {
  ui.item.sortable('disable');
  $.ajax({options}, success: function() {
    ui.item.sortable('enable');
  });
}

I've done a lot of research so far, and can only get the whole list to disable. Any suggestions to what I'm doing wrong, or is this not possible?

Sortable's cancel setting allows you to cancel sortable calls using selectors. I added the following line --

cancel:'.updating'

...and then I add and remove the class around the $.ajax call.

I don't know how I had missed this all day yesterday. :D/
