Description
As per https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/thunderbird-add-ability-to-manually-sort-order-folders-in-folder/idi-p/39061 but that's only for desktop. In Android it would also be nice to be able to reorder the folders and hide some of them too. Moving food, camping, etc to the top. Spam to the bottom. In fact when we click "manage folders" we're surprised not to be able to find that.
