Allow admins to order relationship fields with drag-and-drop

[Snailedlt]

What?

Currently there's no way for admins to order the options in a hasMany relationship field. It would be nice if they could order the relationships by for example drag-and-drop. Perhaps ordering could be a new attribute orderable, admin.orderable or admin.dragAndDropOrdering which is just a boolean?

Why?

This might be useful for things like tags, where you'd want, say 10 tags... but in the frontend you'd only want to display 4 of them. The admin would like to control which 4 are displayed, so having them ordered by priority would be an easy way to allow that.

@Snailedlt can you achieve this using filterOptions? I'm not sure if it allows you to set a sort but feels like that's the way to achieve this. You could simply sort on a priority field.

[Snailedlt]

Possibly. I haven't looked into filterOptions yet.

Do you have some example code in mind?

filterOptions only allows for a Where condition. There is also sortOptions, but that only allows for sorting by a field of the related collection I think.
