Hi there,
In the backend for Ecommerce you can easily sort groups and products. What I don't like is how manual this is. Would it be possible to update the sorting UI and show a grid for the group or product properties and rows? Then you can use the grid columns to quickly sort the data and then still make manual adjustments if needed and then save your changes.
Another option ccould be to have a simple drop down with all the sortable properties to do a quick sort in the list.
Does this make sense? Note: this would just do a client side sorting of the data, just like you would drag and drop or move up/down today.
