Add Dependencies as Sorting Option in Gantt View
Isaac
Right now, the default sorting order for Gantt view is by created date and time of the task, which is not very helpful.
Ideally, we should be able to sort the Gantt view based on dependencies, or even better, if we can have multiple different step sorting options.
Being able to sort according to dependency will help visualize what needs to get done first before we move on to the next item.

We can sort by dependency in List view, but it sorts based on the task name of the blocking dependency... not by the actual order of what is blocking and/or waiting on what. Sorting by the task name of the related task is virtually useless and is totally unrelated to the actual dependency function. Also, sorting by dependency doesn't exist in Gantt view at all, which is the view where it is easiest to create and change dependencies. I often have multiple tasks to be completed within an hour (the smallest timescale in Gantt view), and since we can't sort by dependency order, the tasks are a complete jumble, and it's impossible to even see the dependency connections. Please, please fix this!!
