I think there's been a misunderstanding based on the iPhone menus. An item only needs to be a child of the 'Inbox' folder to be considered in the inbox. To move the icon, from it's menu, you can select a different bookmarked task or existing project. But, you can also from any list hit the editing button, select one or more tasks on the left by hitting the circle that now shows up in place of the check box, hit cut or copy, navigate to where you want them in the outline, then hit edit again and paste them there.
The confusion seems to have been a result of only using the task's details page on the iPhone version to change it's parent. There's more than one way. If you have a folder or task or area you frequently move things to, you can bookmark it, and it will appear as an option there above the current projects listed. But there is the copy and past method I described as well.
