So i had to implement a mechanism to re-order Categories and also Boards for my forum bundle, and with though there are many ways to go about it, here is how i solved the problem of reordering them. The reordering functionality is circular so last items getting pushed down end up on the top of the list, and top items getting pushed up end up on the bottom of the list.

What do you guys think? Know of a better approach? Let me know!
