Are we talking about the same thing?  This thread's issue is (or so it seems 
to me) about moving the _content_ of a selection, as described in 
http://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-using-selections.html#gimp-using-selections-moving

Yes, to simply move the border, you can also use the move tool in selection 
mode, without needing any modifer key.
