Then I think a preview widget with thumbnails that can be dragged and dropped which then invokes a handler to adjust the card numbers of the main entry stack... with HTML preview live and updated in a browser while you work... that's were I am today at least.
Thinking outloud here: Card based as lots of advantages in this scenario for incorporating all the other "use-tasks" that are involved at caption time where focus is on a single caption: html mark up of the text, creating anchors, adding banners above and below etc. all tools that are now on floating pallettes in Supercard can move to a background group available on every card. Allows for incorporation of another scenario where incoming photos arrive by FTP from a distributed stack with the filename of the photo matching the file name of a small text file that hold the caption. Uploading a folder of such input into the card based stack will be a snap....

Any thoughts?
Well, it looks like you hit them both on the head... an intuitive/difficult approach, or a non-intuitive/easy approach...
Personally, if you've got the time, I'd go for the intuitive/difficult
approach... apart from the fact that it would best serve your customers,
you'd have a neet "image-reordering-widget" you could use on other
projects. :-)
Just my 2 cents,
