As I edit vertices, I usually know how far I want to move it due to consistent distances and measurements. I'd like to see a distance-moved popup bubble showing how far I've moved the vertex. You could move the vertex, release the selection and then grab it and move, knowing the straight distance right then. I work on measuring property along a rail line and know the distance from track center. Could save a ton of time when you know how far you need to move a vertex. Kinda like integrating the Measure tool into the editing features. Hopefully others will agree with this idea.

If you need a quick fix to this issue, I figured one out. You have a polygon that's equally distant along its length from side to side, and you need a centerline quickly. Convert the polygon to a line, then do a buffer on one of the sides, then trim as needed. This is mainly for a long polygon like a ROW or road segment. Some of the other tools didn't work for me. I basically had a ROW segment, very long and 100' across. It winds so much that moving a side wouldn't work.
