We should be close to avoiding the need for fixed start and end names now
that (1) is implemented. There is still some behavior that is hard-coded to
the "new" state (2), and there needs to be more testing of workflows that
rename "new" and "closed".

I agree that something similar to the way in which the actions are sorted for 
display in "modified ticket" (.default, I need to check out `weight`) 
would be useful and should not be too difficult to implement?  We could enforce 
a unique value for each action when parsing the workflow in to make sure there 
are no ambiguities?

If it was not for the fixed start and end state names, you could fudge it with 
state name prefixes, but... eurrgh!

No algorithm, but I remember using the nearly undocumented
.weight option for sorting actions in ticket view (see docstring
of ITicketActionController.get_ticket_actions method [1]). IMHO the same
ordering sould be considered for an alternative sort.

Only alphabetical sorting is possible in the Report and Query views.

While there is an intuitive ordering for the 3 states you've shown, it's
not clear what criteria would actually be used to sort them. Consider a
moderately more complex workflow. What is the "intuitive" ordering, and
what the algorithm be to determine the ordering?

[Trac] Status sorting in ticket list

[Mo]

Hi,

if sorting for status in the ticket list this appears to sort 
alphabetically like accepted, closed, new.
A workflow sorting would be more appropriate here like new, accepted, 
closed. It this already possible or worth a bug report?

Best regards.
