Ah, thanks for the hint about the search, so thats just a 'missing feature'.
A combo-box list thingy with '1st' '2nd' '3rd' etc as values (enough for all available values) would do it as well, though I guess thats tricky as 'submit' has to check that each value is only chosen once..
Or, similar to the other idea, have a text box where each of the numbered nodelets can be entered in the order you want, '10 40 20 50', same problem as above though. Dividing numbers by two as you said sounds a bit strange to me..
