No, I don't want to reorder them by hand.  A simple "sort order" menu like
the register window has would suffice.

Both my wife and I write checks on the account, using two different
checkbooks.  As a result, if you sort the checks by date (as does the
reconcile window), they will be out of order numerically.  To reconcile
things against what the bank thinks, I have to pass through the list three
or four times.

If, instead, things were listed in item number order (with unnumbered items
at one end or the other) like "that other program" did, reconciliation
would be quite a bit quicker.
