Description
When an accessory maker has a lot of extensions that can be found by searching for the organisation eg 'Kitronik', it might be useful if they had a way of weighting the ones they think will be most popular or adding new products to the top of the search results.
If there isn't a way to do this already, maybe pxt.json could contain a value for weight that surfaces the extension in the top of the search.
A more granular search would being up specific extensions, but in the case of Kitronik, printed resources ask the use to search for 'Kitronik'.
