Description
Since request order can influence the resolved context by virtue of package precedence, reordering packages in a request is important.
Rez-gui doesn't have a way to reorder packages short of reordering by-hand in a text editor or erasing and reconstructing the request manually.
Some up and down arrows to adjust the request order or a drag/drop mechanism would be very welcome.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the rez-gui request editor and how it stores package order. Add a way to move packages up or down, or drag them into a new order, while preserving the order used for resolution. Done when users can reorder packages without editing or rebuilding the request and the resulting order affects precedence.
