The idea is not drag and drop directly in the document which could  
have problems  you envision.  (We can already do this via foldings,  
but it is unstable.)   Instead, if we could drag and drop in the  
sidebar  "Go to Symbol" we would have no option but to move whole  
paragraphs, subsections, or sections, much like OmniOutliner.   This  
was a feature I could not live without in the old More II, but had to  
adjust when the program vanished.     It should be part of the greater  
GTD philosophy, much like keeping fingers on the keyboard.   When it  
came to a choice between OmniOutliner and Textmate, I chose the latter  
because of its numerous amazing features, but giving up clean folding  
and dragging and dropping sections was nontrivial.
