Options gives me
(slack)
or
(chrome)
but I don't get the options to rearrange the icons in the dock. I can't 'drag' the item either. How can I achieve this?
I am on yosemite 10.10.2

It's a smooth click and upward motion on an icon using your mouse or trackpad to rearrange icons in the Dock. Don't click-and-hold, click and move -- if you click and hold you'll get the option menu overlay for the application.
Tried to make a little gyfcat that shows it happening:
This irregardless of the setting for Keep in Dock on the application. In the above example I'm moving apps that have Keep in Dock set and not set. They're all re-arrangeable.
Even though the items appeared not to be open, they were open. By holding down the right click on the icon, a drop down menu appeared with the option to "quit." Select that item, and the icon is removed.
