| Description | Currently there's a non-optional sort order field. It should be nullable.
Then a new 'catalogues_subcategories_sort_order' catalogue field is needed to define the default sort order (parallels the "*_sort_order" config options). This replaces what is currently a hidden option (cc_sort_date__*). Then a lot of code needs adjusting to make it consistent. |

Right now there are no other category/entry-like content types that have manual ordering, just some resource types where it makes special sense, and Comcode pages.
There are issues for adding a lot more order fields, but I feel it's kind of bloaty, and I would rather have the system consistent until we feel the need to ramp the complexity up.
I'm reorganising issues so the concept of order-overrides is handled from one shared issue.
