Personally I'd be happier if there were weights, like with menu entries. But sticky pages will do...
Yeah, that seems like a cool idea. So, did you open a feature request for it? Or find an existing one to "+1". Or did you provide a patch?
Ok, that was a little tongue-in-cheek, but it's still valid. This is open source, so the software will be what you make of it!
There was a patch to get "node weights" in core: http://drupal.org/node/5738
But that got thrown out because there is a module that will do the same thing called Weights: http://drupal.org/node/35984
There is also a way that you can create this with the views module in 4.7. The Views module in 4.7 allows you to sort by a taxonomy term. You can create a "weights" taxonomy with numbers in it and then sort by that field. At least I think that should work.
So, there, at least 2 different ways to accomplish your goal and 1 issue that you could argue deserves to be in core if you think that's the case.
