I had a chat with Jerad and the UX team regarding hierarchical page design.
Jerad pointed out the importance of having a separate functionality to
manage pages rather cluttering the existing page create/list view. So with
this we are going to update the left side menu (Pages, Add Block, Gadgets)
with an additional item, Eg:- manage pages which is going to provide manage
page hierarchy & page order by simply dragging and dropping pages.

Existing page list will be there as its is displaying all pages, providing
page creation, search without indicating any hierarchy.
