It only affects the page listings by displaying a portion of the total list, with each click triggering another page load rather than using a jquery effect to show/hide, accordion-style.

There actually is a plugin that purports to do what I'm suggesting, but it didn't work for me when I tried working with it.

More importantly, I'd suggest this should be in core, since it's an important part of the UI for a full CMS.

Issue: When adding a new page, it appears at the bottom of the drag-n-drop list, and must be dragged up to where you want it, while scrolling through a very long list of menu and sub-menu items (and sub-sub-menu, etc).

Proposed Solution: Make each menu collapsable so that all of its child items can be hidden to shorten your list, and shown only when particular sub-menus are being worked on.

It should be ready by the end of next week or perhaps the week after, so keep an eye out here:

This puts the pages at the bottom of the menu tree, and you drag them to where you want.

As many WP admins will be keeping their Pages in order on the backend for organizations sake, it would be nice to have an "Add in place" button as well - this will look at the menu hierarchy, and if the direct siblings and/or parent are there, it will add this page to the menu respectively. Similarly if you're creating the menu for the first time you could check several pages and they'll be added in the parent/child/sibling relationship assigned in the Pages section.
