If I load files into Tag Sources - [Amazon.de](http://Amazon.de) I get a window with my filenames which often need to be moved up or down to match the correct order. Currently I can select multiple files but it only allows me to move a single file - can you add the facility to move whichever files have been selected in one go. And when they are moved can the window show the point where I moved the files to rather than defaulting back to the top of the file list.

Because of a multiselectable itemlistbox it should be allowed to move selected groups of items up or down in one push, even on a staggered selection, which should be treated as a contiguous selection, e. g.  
1  
2\*  
3  
4\*  
5  
6\*

push one up should give  
2\*  
4\*  
6\*  
1  
3  
5

push one down should give (?)  
1  
3  
2\*  
4\*  
6\*  
5

Does it make sense?  
No, I think not.

So ... multiselectable itemlistbox should only be configured to allow single or contiguous group selection, e. g.  
1  
2  
3\*  
4\*  
5\*  
6

push one up should give  
1  
3\*  
4\*  
5\*  
2  
6

push one down should give  
1  
2  
6  
3\*  
4\*  
5\*

I thought about the 2nd example, too.
