Moving Dependent Items in Gantt

In the Gantt chart when we move one item which has dependency link with other items, ideally all those should move but that doesn't seems to be happening. Is that a feature missing and how soon can we have that? There could be multiple counter argument to have it the way it is but having dependents move altogether is definitely more intuitive and at the least it should be there as an option.

      You've done half the job by enabling phase or milestone dependencies (which visually links the items together with arrows). Proper Gantt tools go further and allow relationship definition of these joining lines (Start/Finish, Finish/Start, Finish/Finish etc). So would be good to know if this is possible or why it is provided as it stands.

      A simple task of moving the start date of a project is made much harder as we have to manually adjust all milestones and phases because the dependencies are not set up.
