This works instead if Track 2 also has loaded Melodyne. Then you can drag each tuned file between the two tracks..

Would it be possible somehow that Melodyne saves the changes somewhere, so when you drag that item back it will have the changes you made to it before?
You have correctly described the current situation. Every track or item that has ARA FX can be aware of every other track or item that has ARA FX. For example, if Melodyne is on tracks 1 and 2, you can edit items on either track and move them to the other track without losing data. If Melodyne is on the item itself, you can move the item anywhere without losing data.

Data is discarded when you move media to a non-ARA-aware context because otherwise, the amount of persistent data would grow out of control. You can work around this by using ARA as per-take FX (which isn't any more resource intensive than using it as track FX), or by keeping a muted copy of the item on an ARA-aware track.
