Then why not ask if they want to move the menu item? This would allow 
"inline" menu rearranging, without making you rearrange things by accident. 
(i personally have hated the menu editor from the first time i saw it, and 
i still find it silly that you actually need to launch a program to 
rearrange the menu)
