 A checkbox would allow the user to indicate which item the new one being
 added is inserted after. This could be done in other ways as well ( adding
 a `selected` class on-click for example ), as I said I'm not pushing for a
 checkbox specifically. Checkboxes just allow for easy single and multiple
 selections. In the case of #43383, only single is needed but this ticket
 and perhaps others could benefit from having multiple items selected for
 things like a bulk sort.

 you're in "reorder" mode. Attaching a gif to show how it currently works
 in the Customizer.

 My apologies, I missed the Reorder button in the first screenshot. I'm not
 sure I'm sold on the idea of now having to click a button to get into what
 is currently the default state for editing menus. I fully realize that
 this is how the customizer manages menus and getting those experiences in
 parity may be a good idea. I'm just not sure it makes sense for this
 experience.
