UI enhancement: Custom sorting order for tags, albums, etc #1295

Closed FLAGEL closed 1 week ago

FLAGEL commented 1 week ago

While we have a good selection of sorting orders to pick from (date, size, name, etc), I propose introducing a "custom order" where one or several items can be selected and freely moved up or down in the viewing order.

The ability to pin an item at the top is great, but with many items pinned one might still need to fall back to using prefixes. New items could be placed at top to make them easy to spot, much like new albums are shown today. Also, while showing the custom order, it would be clever to ignore pin status but still be able toggle items as pinned for scenarios where a user switches back and forth between the custom and non-custom sorting order.

Thanks again!
