Right now suggested terms can be listed in alphabetical order, in order of recent use, or in order of popularity. However, the taxonomy system already has a custom ordering mechanism of its own, weight. Let's add a fourth sorting option to sort by term weight. (That would, like core, sort by weight and then by name.)

Sorting by recent use is rather a support request, not a feature. Selecting the "sort by recent" option gives the most recently _added_ terms. Sort by recent use is what i needed. Patched local.

I have no idea what you just said, but I don't think it is at all related to this thread. if you have another sort method to add, please file a patch as a new issue. :-)

Here is a patch to sort by weight, at the end of the list for the unweighted terms they are sorted by name

The ordering was backward, but as soon as I took out the DESC it worked fine. Thanks!
