When reorganizing curves and plots, a nicer way than a specific dialog would be to allow curve drag&drop. This should obviously work only in layout mode so that it is consistent and does not interfere with zooming operations.

THe way I imagine this is:
- when the pointer comes within a given (small) distance of a curve, it changes to a hand (or whatever other form suggests that one may click there and enter a drag event). The curve could also be highlighted like icons in konqueror if it is not too resource-intensive.
- click and drag: the curve follows
- drop on a graph: the curve is moved (or better: a popup asks whether it should be copied or moved).
