There was a problem hiding this comment.
This MSC is missing key sections from the template which help answer questions like "why is https://spec.matrix.org/v1.3/client-server-api/#ordering-1 insufficient" and how this actually works.
I'm converting this to a draft (WIP) MSC pending these changes.

I had not seen the template, but after some digging, I found it.
I have updated the file accordingly.

After reading through this it still sounds almost identical to what is currently specced (as @turt2live already linked to).
I'm not sure if any clients allow you to manually change that ordering, but Element Web/iOS/Android and Synapse/Dendrite should respect the configured ordering.

(Element doesn't have user-accessible ways of making the room list manually ordered, but the space panel respects the ordering)

Element Web/Desktop also mostly respect the order in the space home/hierarchy page, with the exception of ordering subspaces before rooms

| This should greatly complement Spaces, and would make organisation and navigation simpler, especially since clients | ||
| could implement features such as drag-and-drop reordering. |

Clients can already do this, Element Web/Desktop already have the appropriate algorithm for re-ordering top-level spaces, applying the same to space children would be trivial without considering dnd to drag between spaces

A proposal for Spaces to have a specified custom order for Rooms and subspaces that clients can display.
