Yes, you can just move them out of the way, but more often than not you end up moving them to an area where you're going to be putting down notes as well.
If you've got the Draw(Select or Line) tool activated, are you really going to want to do anything else for duration that you're using it?
You can move markers outside the MIDI edit.
I just find hitting markers within MIDI edits frustrating. Maybe I'm just highly strung and easily upset...
