Bug Description

System: Ubuntu MATE 20.04.

Package: mate-menu 20.04.3-0ubuntu1.

Problem:
Originally reported in [https://ubuntu-mate.community/t/how-to-rearrange-favorites-in-advanced-menu-via-drag-and-drop-mate-16-10/9664/9].
Items in 'Favorites' section of mate-menu can not be manually rearranged using drag and drop approach. Editing ~/.config/mate-menu/applications.list works though.
I can confirm it works as expected in Ubuntu MATE 18.04.4 with mate-menu 18.04.3-2ubuntu1.
It may be related to a previous (now fixed) bug [https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mate/+bug/1628188].
