 set it to draft to temporarily remove it? I'd consider trashing a page as
 intent to never get it back. This may just be my opinion/preference though
 and not the majority of other user's way.

 implemented for trashed pages. My suggestion is still the same as pages or
 posts can be untrashed.

 I don't know if I've ever seen that "invalid" menu item scenario come up
 before, I just had to look it up. That actually sounds better. The main
 goal is to have the menu item not show on the front end if it's object was
 trashed. It would be nice to make it easy to reinstate that menu item just
 by bringing the object back (as long as it's not removed from the DB,
 obviously).
