When you're creating a report template, it would be nice if you could pick up and drag the rows to order them, rather than needing to right click on each or do Actions>Move Field Up/Down. Reorganizing a list of displayed fields can get tedious, especially if you have many display fields.

Not closing this yet, since drag and drop is not implemented; but noting that Angular reports (bug 1993823) uses up/down arrows for moving field order, which at least is an improvement from the AngularJS interface.
