New description:

 Unkile posts, in pages we can order and re-order the pages (using
 "menu_order" field in "wp_posts" table).

 But since the new "Custom Menu" feature was introduced, do we realy need
 the page ordering?

 We can create new menus, add as many pages as we like and re-order them as
 we like (this is the purpose of menues).

 If we can do this using menus, then we can delete the ordering feature
 from the page edit sub-pannel (and delete the "menu_order" field from the
 "wp_posts" table in wp database).
