OK, to partially answer my own question...

If I sort the view by Importance, I can then:  
A) Right-click over the Importance column to get the task to the nearest 25 
units of Importance,   then 
B) Use Alt+C (to give Contexts field focus), then hit Tab once (to give the 
Importance slider focus). I can then use up/down arrow keys to 
increment/decrement the value of Importance by 1 unit.

It's a bit fiddly but it allows me to fine-tune sort order within 
"Importance" to the nearest 25 as set up by using the dropdown.  

Not as good as proper full manual sort, within Importance, but better than 
nothing.
