Comment (by milamj):

 Being able to select the parent is a nice feature, though this can also be
 done when editing the page itself. Concerning the order, I think it would
 be more beneficial if additional feedback was provided about the menu
 items in the order list within that combo box. As it is, 1 of 2 and 2 of 2
 is really the only feedback that is provided, which makes it difficult to
 know to where the menu item is being moved. Also, it would be great if the
 order combo box was developed so that it didn't immediately change the
 order when an arrow key is used and only made the change when the enter
 key was pressed after an item is selected. Alt-DownArrow is a work-around
 that screen reader users can use to  make this behavior possible, but
 combo boxes can be built so that this additional keystroke isn't needed.
