Came here since this is the only thing that I'm missing on this great app. I sort my shopping lists prior to going to the store and try to keep it sorted when I add new items. Always long pressing an item for reordering is annoying for me. So I would appreciate if this could get merged (with a toggle in the settings).

My opinion on the UI is that the current cross/check icons do not add much information since an item's state can be observed by the font style (strike through) already. I see that adding this drag icon to every item is not optimal either, but it does not annoy me.

I rebased the commit by @leafar-tb against the latest release and published it here:
https://github.com/fabian-thomas/Simple-Notes-Simple-Drag
I will maintain (i.e. rebasing on a release) this fork as long as I use this app and the functionality is not merged upstream.

Thank you very much @leafar-tb for the patch!
Thanks @tibbi for this great app! I use it nearly daily.
