Hi everyone,

I'm trying to test out the latest code in preparation for Maryland's
continuing development efforts.  We are running rev 70075 on a test
environment and I have encountered a UI change that I want to check on
to determine if this was a change and discuss whether or not this needs
to to go back to the original functionality.

When managing grouped items in a template, in the past, when one
reordered items in a group using the drag and drop UI interface, a link
would appear next to the text "Drag and drop to rearrange the grouped
items." that said "Save new order for grouped items."  That link has now
disappeared and when one re-orders items in a group, nothing appears. 
It looks like the new order is saved, but this UI doesn't feel as
intuitive since at the basic item level for the template, one has to
click the "Save Order" button after rearranging items at the base
template level.

So, I am proposing this come back so that a user can "Save" the order. 
I don't remember where this falls in our new workflow that was
discussed, but to me this feels like a major change in UI (as someone
who has been using this tool extensively for several years).  Does this
fall under the category "to be proposed and discussed in the group
before implementing"?
