I'm posting this because the original request ("Sort and/or manually order tasks") has been closed, presumably because of the addition of Doit Now.

I realise that Doit Now allows manual sorting of a selection of tasks. However, it's pretty much isolated from the rest of the system - in particular, if I want to filter by a context or work with a specific project (which may have many tasks), Doit Now is completely useless, because choosing those options takes me out of Today.

If I'm missing a solution to this issue, or if a more complete version of manual sorting is in the pipeline despite the topic being marked Completed, I'd be really happy to hear it, but what I'd really like to see (and I'm sure other people would too) is manual sorting in all contexts and time views - Doit Now is just a bag hung on the side of the existing system, not a solution to this request.
