In this case I have to find a solution. The editors are not happy. Makes
sense. These are galleries of homes and locations. Some locations have 100
+ photos. Editors need to be able to quickly order and group a gallery
however they wish. They have a few thousand galleries to create.
A gallery might start with 20 shots of the exterior. Then there might be 5
kitchen shots. 10 bedroom shots. 10 living room shots. 20 shots of the
surrounding neighborhood.
With that many images; dragging to sort and group takes much longer in a
row format (admin inlines) versus grid format.
