If there are multiple values in a field (such as composers in potpourri), it is difficult (in the Tags Panel) or impossible (in the Extended Tags) to enter another name in the desired order. It would be nice to Alt+drag (and/or Alt+arrow keys), like the rows in the table.

Nice idea, I'll see what I can do about it.

Or some kind of "Move Up" or "Move Down"[-Buttons](https://docs.mp3tag.de/actions/#rearranging-action-groups) like the ones in the Action Group window:

... the function (e.g. with the arrow keys) would only be available for multi-value fields when at least one of them is selected?
But for all other fields, the buttons would not be enabled?

I think, yes. That is the only way, it makes sense, in my opinion.

Should this rearranged values only be displayed in this manually set order?
Or do you expect that they will be saved back in this sort order into the tags?

I think ideally if the sort arrangement order is being changed in the Extended Tags window, then it should be reflected if saved into the file's metadata. Not sure if this is feasible though?

Yes, this is my original goal.
_I apologize for not being clear in my first post._
