1. There is no (seen) way to order accounts as I wish. For example, currently TB places "RSS FAR" account before "News Mozilla" account, whereas I wish move RSS account below.

2. Folders (which I create in account myself and where I wish to place subscribes) and subscribes are ordered by name without (seen) possibility to control order manually (for example, move one folder/subscribe before/after other).

Reproducible: Always

     Forget to mention, that I mean there RSS folders and subcribes. But though folders inside other accounts are not sorted by its own methods, but there also no possibility to reorder them.

     Yes. But bug 61078 concerns only on accounts itself, whereas I mean both accounts and subnodes. There should be consistency - all nodes should be movable inside account (and, may be, between accounts?), also as accounts itself.

TB 1.5.0.8: not fixed

Comment 4

[Mike Cowperthwaite]

Adding dependency on bug 244347, which is the TB equivalent of 61078 and specific to account ordering.  Leaving this open due to the request for ordering folders within an account.

Please stop adding comments saying "this isn't fixed."

Mike: so this bug is now only about Folder reordering? Ideally this would be closed as dupe of bug 244347, while creating a new one for reordering folders. Or at least change the title of this bug.

I don't have the privilege to do either of these, but if you agree I can create a new bug for folder reordering so that you could close-duplicate this one.

Ah, sorry, it appears that bug 318467 already covers the folders, so this should be closed duplicate of both this one and bug 244347.
