This functionality could be implemneted in the Navigate menu in the Qt frontend: Make the menu a list view, allowm multiple selection, create and connect actions to movce things a level in or out. Could be extended to shift whole sections up and down. Less than 200 lines for the in/out part I'd bet. Andre'
