Launcher icons - unable to reorder using only keyboard

Project Member Reported by leberly@chromium.org, Sep 21

Issue description

Google Chrome	70.0.3538.16 (Official Build) dev (64-bit)
Firmware Version	Google_Caroline.7820.384.0

Steps to repro:
# open launcher fully by navigating with alt + shift + l, pressing enter, then tabbing to the up arrow, then pressing enter
# tab to any icon, for example, I used the Docs icon
# right click it using shift + search + volume up
Expected: way to rearrange icon order
Actual: no way to rearrange

Also affects screen reader users

Does a UX paradigm for re-ordering a list of things in a grid via keyboard exist already, or do we have to create our own from scratch?

Typically, what I've seen is that in the context menu for each icon, there is an option to "move left" or "move right". I think that's all we need to do here. 
+sgabriel, We need specs for "move left" "move right" context menu options.

Should we add a setting for this feature?

Ok, talked offline with omrilio, lets just use a keyboard shortcut instead of a context menu option.

what do you think lpalmaro? ctrl+left/right?
