Description Simon Archer CLA 2015-10-12 11:10:52 EDT 
Using:
  Eclipse IDE for Eclipse Committers
  Version: Mars Release (4.5.0)
  Build id: 20150621-1200

The Manifest Editor's Dependencies tab has a section titled "Automated Management of Dependencies". In this section there is an "Up" and a "Down" button that are used to reorder the selected plug-ins in the list.

Selecting a plug-in in the list and clicking "Up" causes the plug-in to move up one position. But once moved, the selection is lost. This means that if you wish to move a plug-in up multiple positions you have to re-select the plug-in after each move.

This is a regression from an earlier PDE release, and is not behaviorally symmetrical with the "Down" button that maintains the selection correctly.
