    <title>idea Enable Rearrangement of Repeatable Elements in the Metadata Editor in Metadata, Catalogs and Search Ideas</title>

    <description>&lt;P&gt;I think it would improve my metadata editing experience to be able to rearrange repeatable elements such as attributes in the Entity and Attribute Information section. Currently, if I have to add fields to a dataset after it has been published, I can only add those fields to the bottom of the list of attributes in the metadata editor. If I want to rearrange the fields so that the new fields are grouped with thematically similar fields, I either have to export the metadata and rearrange the elements in the xml document manually or I have to cut and paste each piece of each attribute object to shift fields around in the list of attributes. Being able to drag attributes into whatever order I want directly within the metadata editor would save a lot of effort spent on these aforementioned processes.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
