Lock Task List Order

Lock Task List Order

Hi there, 

Is there a way to lock the order of a task list? If i mark the first task on a task list as closed, it will send the closed task to the bottom of the list, or underneath open task lists. This also is reflected in the Gantt milestone report and makes it hard to follow. I would prefer if i could order my task list in the way that i would like, regardless of the completion status.

And, also if i could reorder tasks that have been marked completed. The only way i have found to do this is to reopen and change. But once again the desired order is lost once the task is marked closed. 

Perhaps if this does not exist already, a custom sort field enabling a user to design their own order would be good.

Thanks,
