The <this layer in context> view is very convenient. I would like to add a contextual menu to each folder in that view that allows developers to reorder all position attributes automatically. for example, if I have two modules: Module A: <folder name="MyFolder"> <file name="com-mycompany-MyAction1.instance"> <attr name="position" intvalue="100"/> </file> <file name="com-mycompany-MyAction2.instance"> <attr name="position" intvalue="150"/> </file> </folder> Module B: <folder name="MyFolder"> <file name="com-mycompany-MyAction3.instance"> <attr name="position" intvalue="170"/> </file> <file name="com-mycompany-MyAction4.instance"> <attr name="position" intvalue="171"/> </file> </folder> The result of the reorder would be (with a position interval of 10): Module A: <folder name="MyFolder"> <file name="com-mycompany-MyAction1.instance"> <attr name="position" intvalue="100"/> </file> <file name="com-mycompany-MyAction2.instance"> <attr name="position" intvalue="110"/> </file> </folder> Module B: <folder name="MyFolder"> <file name="com-mycompany-MyAction3.instance"> <attr name="position" intvalue="120"/> </file> <file name="com-mycompany-MyAction4.instance"> <attr name="position" intvalue="130"/> </file> </folder> I need this because I have dozens of modules, and overtime, I end up with less and less "pluggable positions" between each instance. Refactoring positions manually across all modules is painful and error prone.
