Let description displayed when hovering over a menu item in the menu administration page. And the weight of menu items in a separate column.
It improves the administration of the menu times.
Please take a look.
Thanks, Ralf

Let weight of a menu item displayed in a separate column in the menu administration page, Home » administer » site building » menus » list.
It improves the administration of the menu items.
Thanks, Ralf

patch re-rolled
#6
Maybe we could copy from CCK , it has a nice interface for editing weights.

Patch worked perfectly and added that much needed UI improvement. I've got users who get frustratced having to click to edit each menu item just to see what weighting the item has.
+1 for the patch

On a related note -- there is probably room for a little AJAX weight widget that allows you to change the weight, and that will refresh the page after you updated a weight. That would make it faster to change weights (and see the weights!), and we'd be able to use something like that on a variety of administration pages. If JavaScript is disabled, it could degrade to this patch's behavior.
In other words ... feel free to take this one step further. :)

We now have drag and drop and don't have this problem!
