#32922: Dashboard Widget API Widget Sorting

 In the Dashboard Widget API, it is stated that sorting of widgets is not
 currently possible.

 Could we please have this ability to sort widgets brought into the API?

 This could work by setting an order_id on the widgets, where 1 = top
 widget, and so on, with the admin theme setting how many is displayed per
 row.

 P.S Apologies if this has already been suggested, I did search but didn't
 find anything.
