It would be great if items of a section could be sorted in the back end using ajax (similar to the way sections are sorted in the back end) and for this order to display on the front end as well

Give the new "dragSortOrder" field a try. I think it does exactly what you want. Give it a try, search for "dragSortOrder" in the forum for more details or post back if you need more help with it.

Re: [Dave] Sorting
the "dragSortOrder" feature is superb! good work.
Re: [Dave] Sorting
Is it true that once "dragSortOrder" is placed in the "Order By" field, newly cerated items are displayed on the bottom of the list. if however, "dragSortOrder DESC" is used, newly cerated items are displayed on top?
I would like my items listed by "updatedDate" then by "title" until i manually use drag sort to rearrange them, is this possible?

Yes, you can specify "dragSortOrder DESC" to have new items at the top, but if you sort with dragSortOrder you can't also sort with updatedDate, unfortunately. It's either one or the other.
