Describe the bug
When a block has nested blocks, such as columns, or sub-navigation menus, a nested block can't be moved out of its block container, whether up one level, or into a different container, with the keyboard only.
With the Navigation block there is the added complication of toolbars being fixed to the top of the block, so it isn't even possible to drag blocks between levels of nesting.
This is a blocker for the experimental use of the Navigation block in
/nav-menus.php
, because the current menus page provides the ability to drag and drop blocks and move them with the keyboard in any direction.One possible avenue for exploration is having drag/drop/move functionality in the block navigator: #18014, #21372.
Related issues: #20955, #21391, #20078.
