[Credentials/Badges] Custom Badge Properties Interface

This idea has been developed and deployed to Canvas Credentials

Problem statement:

In Canvas Credentials/Badgr Pro, one can add custom badge properties to the metadata. Unfortunately, the interface for adding the fields is so rigid that once you have submitted the fields, you can't edit their placement/order. So if I add a set of 12 fields that align with the required properties to describe a credential and submit them, then realize that actually field 1 and 2 should be rearranged, I have to delete EVERYTHING and start all over.

Proposed solution:

Add a drag and drop element to the editing interface (like we can do with pages in a module in Canvas), so that the individual custom metadata fields can be re-arranged.

Agree, it is natural for the metadata to evolve over time.
