How could we allow configurable order of the rooms on the schedule view?

I feel like Nodequeue is the right tool for this job.

If we base the order on a View then folks can sort however they want, with Nodequeue as the default. This would also allow folks from excluding particular rooms, making it possible to have one view for sessions and another schedule view for BOFs or similar.

Here's a patch which adds View schedule_room_order and has cod_session.module use that when ordering the rooms.

I think the patch actually needs work because there's some removals in there that shouldn't be, please manually review the patch.

Also, until nodequeue exportables are sorted out perhaps this patch shouldn't depend on it and rather just export the view?

This would be a valuable option to have. I imagine most conferences have a fairly consistent room allocation, but it can change over the days or the focus as you mention for BOFs. Being able to build different schedule views
