@Richard: I like the immediate feedback that your patch adds to the menu editor. It's a definite improvement, but It doesn't really solve the problem of where the items get placed once you drop them. If you open the Menu Editor and drag an item up or down, you'll notice a black line that appears when you hover between any two items. The placement of the line implies that when you drop the item, it will be placed in between those other two items, but if you're dragging downward the item directly below gets pushed up and the item you were dragging is placed below the line. When you drag an item down, the item should be placed above the black line, not below it. Dragging an item up behaves as expected, though. I'm attaching an image that demonstrates what I'm talking about just to clear up any confusion.
