For my Windows application I'm currently looking for a standard (or at least widely used) keyboard shortcut for moving items in a Win32 listview. I've looked at MSDN's recommendations Guidelines for Keyboard User Interface Design but unfortunately, the topic isn't addressed there.
I'm thinking about Alt + ↓ and Alt + ↑ (Alt + Shift + ↓ and Alt + Shift + ↑ for moving to bottom/top) but was wondering whether there are any quasi-standard keyboard shortcuts for this task.

For what it's worth, Google Tasks uses Ctrl + ↑ and Ctrl + ↓ to move items in the list up and down.
If there isn't a defined standard then just have a tool-tip or some help text available to the user in your application?
