On the main dashboard please maintain a consistent ordering.
Dashboard element sorting should be fixed preferably in alphabetical order. The whole idea of a dashboard should be to provide an at a glance view of the state of your server set. When you change the order from servername when all is green to some other order because something has triggered an alert on a server I have to spend extra time figuring out which server has an issue because the sort order has changed.
Version 6.0.11 has now been released and amongst the enhancements is the ability to fix the servers in alphabetical order (Oder by: Name).

Have you tried the pin functionality Sean to effectively watch something specific, or is it more about having all your monitored instances in a fixed position? If the later, this would obviously break the current ordering of severity/priority. Therefore, is it more important for you to have priority issues with across all MEs bubble to the top (irrespective of what they relate to) or to scan through a set that is fixed in order to identify issues relating to those MEs...thus doing your own prioritisation?
