[ I posted this to the consulting list but since discussion has already arrived here I figured I should re-post the original message. FYI, this is what caused me to discover the problem with #theme and hook_form_alter. ] A client needed to be able to change the weight of a module I developed for him. Rather than hard code the setting in the module's .install file, I developed a small module called moduleweight that adds a Weight column to the modules table at admin/modules. I was not aware of any existing way to do this. Module moduleweight is available in CVS. If other people find it useful, I will promote it to a 4.7 project.
