Sort issues by weight

Problem to solve

We used to be able to sort issues by weight using the dropdown to the right of the issues search box. However, I can't seem to see that option any more. The options I can sort by are Priority, Created date, Last updated, Milestone, Due date, Popularity, and Label Priority.

Why has sorting by weight been removed?

Target audience

Everyone

Further details

We used to be able to sort by weight, so it's not clear why this has been removed. We use weight to indicate how important something is, so I would like to be able to sort by weight and tackle all the high weight issues first.

Now I have to flick through all the issues to try and find the highest weighted item. It's annoying and time consuming.

Proposal

Allow users to sort issues by weight. We used to be able to do this, so it's unclear why this feature has been taken away.

What does success look like, and how can we measure that?

Success is when the user can sort by weight and the issues are sorted by weight, like we used to be able to do.

It was a really great feature, and we would love to have it back please! If I've missed something, please let me know. Thanks!
