[support] create custom editing forms with views?

[sander-martijn]

Hi,

I have a gallery on my home page of my photography site 
http://sander-martijn.com/.  The order of the photos is set by a custom 
integer field named order.  This is working well except when I have to 
edit them - to reorder (not only when I switch the order but if I want 
to take one off the end and stick another in the middle) I have to edit 
every image's order number separately until it's appearing in the order 
I want.  This is similar to changing weight of an item in a menu for 
example. 

I would like to create an admin "view" or other form that displays a 
list all of my images (custom content type not the default image type) 
with the order pulldown available so that I can reorder them all on one 
page.  I immediately thought of views but afaik you can't have a form 
element on a view like that.  Am I wrong with this, and if so does 
anyone have any other suggestions for creating succh a batch editing 
page?  I'd rather not build a whole module just for this purpose (not 
too comfortable with how to deal with forms in modules yet).
