Comment (by Travel_girl):

 I think if you delete the parent menu item, the subitems should not be
 delete automatically, but should get a level higher and not being a
 submenu anymore.

 If you add multiple pages, where you have a parent page and child pages,
 it would be a nice behavior, if the hierarchy would also be automatically
 in the menu, because you add them together.

 I'm not so sure, about that same behavior, if you add the child-page alone
 and not together with the parent page. It could be confusing, that the
 menu item jumps in a spot, on its own.
