I think David's right. The regular drag-and-drop won't overlap itself, so when that kind of left-out measure happens to me (often enough!), I create a quick scratch staff at the bottom, mass-edit drag-and-drop the group down to it, drag-and-drop it back up with one measure offset, and delete the scratch staff. So long as auto-update layout is turned off, it doesn't bother anything else doing it that way, all all grace notes are preserved.
