Sorting of Custom Metadata

Notice: This feature request uses the outdated term "Advanced Metadata" for what is now called "Custom Metadata" ("Benutzerdefinierte Metadaten").

1 Requirements

At the time being, metadata entries are presented alphabetically (Selection List Drop Dow and Selection List Checkboxes). But often you would like to present the metadata entries in a predefined order, e.g. following a certain process. Therefore, the metadata entries should be sortable.

Additionally, an option to cluster metadata entries should be offered. (Selection List Checkboxes only)
