Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
atb changes sorting of todos - there is no way to just use my order that I intentionally made (I guess it's choosing duration if no priority is given and then alphabetically?).

Describe the solution you'd like
I want atb to reflect my order of todos (maybe add an option to use custom sorting / original sorting of todos)

Describe alternatives you've considered
Tried to use priorities but that adds more work and makes quick changes to my todolist tedious

Research direction

Start by locating the atb plugin's current todo-sorting entry point and inspect how duration, priority, and alphabetical ordering are selected. Done means users can choose an original/custom sorting mode that preserves the order of todos in their Todolist without requiring priorities.
