Return item to Available Options at same position

Issue Summary

When using this module with the Taxonomy module, it loads in all the rows from the chosen taxonomy vocabulary in the order that is specified in the Taxonomy weightings, but when you move it from available to selected and back, the rows get added to the bottom instead of returning to their original position.

Is there anyway this module could be altered so that the rows get returned to their original taxonomy weighted position when moved back?

I am of course referring to Content Taxonomy and not Taxonomy... sorry for any confusion caused...

This is going to be some pretty complex javascript to write, for very little benefit to my mind. Patches are welcome though!

Updated this with a better title and also for 7.x version.

This is actually quite important with long lists, people find it very confusing when items seem to dissapear when you set them back to available.

I agree the javascript could be complex (I'll ask an expert) but it would really polish this module.

I've hacked a small piece of javascript to repopulate the unselected box with the original values, except those present in the selected box. Note that I'm no javascript/jQuery developer, so it might be a really ugly hack, but it seems to work fine here!

Just think of it as a 'proof of concept' ;)
