Bug Description
Press-holding on a icon in the Launcher should de-couple the icon and enable the user to reorder the icon vertically without leaving the Launcher. This change has been prototyped in Unity 2D and works well.
Desired resolution:
Press-holding for 500ms (to be consistent with Unity2D) should decouple the icon from the launcher and enable the user to reorder the icon by dragging vertically. After the icon is de-coupled the user can drag the icon straight downwards without leaving the Launcher area.

Usability issue it seems. It's late for that kind of change, but putting it on the map nonetheless, to have a general list of usability issues in mind when we can allocate resources on polish vs bug fixing.
