[HANASHIR:8076] scallions and Dayenu

I've attended two Passover seders in the last several years at which during
the song Dayenu, seder participants took scallions and "gently" beat the
person sitting next to them. Does anyone know anything about the history of
this? I believe it is a sephardic custom.
