While I agree 100% that it's mock-up time, I must comment that your
scenario below seems more likely a proprietary requirement than the
inverse.... Just a thought. I'd be pretty disappointed to not have
the ability to re-parent pages in admin. I think the Comatose
solution of putting a "hidden" drop down where you specify the parent
of the page provides some of what you need as it makes reparenting a
little bit obscure and out of the path of the ordinary content
creator / editor.
As for "too many pages", yes this probably needs to be addressed. The
www.diopa.org site has quiet a few pages and things are still feeling
ok to us. I've played-around with taking-out the page icon and
shrinking the row height to make the listing shorter and more "all
business". This helped a lot. But as for the "right way" to do
this... hmmm...
I don't follow your scenario too well personally I'd love to see any
mock-ups. I like thinking about a future Radiant would have a
standard way of filling the page with just one node and all it's
children down ... especially if it related in someway to a
permissions system or build-in hooks for such a thing to be more
easily extended in....

I'm a little worried, because I want my radiant users to be able to
re-order things, but not to re-parent things. And having re-parenting
through the same mechanism as re-ordering could make it more difficult
to re-order, and could also make it a hassle to somehow permission
things so that only re-ordering is allowed for certain user types...
