Just wanted to post it in case anyone wanted that functionality right now.

It might be more work but I'd definitely have to vote for option 3. This
could be expanded to work with the shoppingcart plugin maybe so that
beginners could cut and paste menu items around? There might need to be
a config that's off by default for enabling that as users may mess
things up unintentionally. Just a thought anyway but definitely option 3.
