You can already move a folded block of text. Though not in the way you describe:
1. Put cursor at beginning of line showing the fold. 
2. Shift+DownArrow. 
3. Cmd+x. 
4. Navigate to where you want to insert.
5. Cmd+v.

Dragging and dropping the fold marker is not very precise, and could cause problems if the destination if off the screen and has to be scrolled to find.
