Summary	0015317: Add possibility to rearrange filter fields on the filter panel
Description	I've tried to create a new filter field using MantisFilter class. I did it, but now this filter field occupied a new <tr>...</tr> line on the filter panel, although it might be in the previous line near the other filters. It would be nice to have an opportunity to appoint the order of each field on the filter panel. This allows to compact and rearrange filter panels view.
Additional Information	It may just be a property of the MantisFilter class. Also filter_api.php should be modified.
Tags	No tags attached.
