For articulations, it's explicit in the code and it looks like a feature. MuseScore 1.3 also had it.
For rests, it was not working in MuseScore 1.3. As stated here http://musescore.org/en/node/21573#comment-81188 I don't really like it for consistency sake. On another hand, it's great to be able to move rests without going out of note entry.... So not sure if this is a bug or a feature...
Moving rests is a special convenience function to move rests in space units as this is often necessary in a multi voice context. Its consistent with moving the note head (in half space units).
I would argue though that the ability to move the rests won't be needed when the code is improved in this area.
As a result, it means other uses of up/down, such as being able to move around the score to other elements, cannot be done, perhaps? Maybe via alt, but it's still an additional step?
