I can confirm this bug. I consider it an undesired change since when one
is on a headline, one rarely wants to move only the headline up and
down. E.g., turning...

* TODO Headline
  :LOGBOOK:
  CLOCK: [2014-06-23 Mon 09:34]--[2014-06-23 Mon 09:35] =>  0:01
  :END:

...into...

  :LOGBOOK:
* TODO Headline
  CLOCK: [2014-06-23 Mon 09:34]--[2014-06-23 Mon 09:35] =>  0:01
  :END:

...does not make much sense. Below is a patch to fix it.

Best,
Matt

Subject: [PATCH] Fix speedkeys to move subtrees up and down

* lisp/org.el: (org-speed-commands-default) Org speed keys were not
  updated to reflect the recent changes to org-shiftmetaup and
  org-shiftmetadown. As a result the default bindings for speedkeys
  "U" and "D" were destructive, since they moved only single
  lines. Binding them to org-metaup and org-metadown fixes the
  problem.

Thanks to Marco Wahl for reporting the problem:
