Drag and drop to change priority.

[ghost]

This is an interesting idea that is seen in other PSAs, and would make managing priorities easier IMO.

This could be more complicated than it first appears. There are two modes of task list sorting:

1. by computed priority, and
2. by projectName and then taskName

The main task list on the Tasks tab uses the latter - ie the list isn't displayed by priority, and thus it makes little sense to drag one task higher or lower than another.

The list on the home page is ordered by the computed priority, which uses the task's dateTargetCompletion, the taskPriority, and the projectPriority. Simply changing the task's priority by a drag operation may not result in bumping it up the list to where you want it to be.

OK, maybe not possible. I had noticed another PSA supported it, but it
seems complicated to implement to me too.

Simple changing the task's priority by a drag operation may not in fact
bump it up the list to where you want it to be.
