I use a number to ensure a particular item is placed at the top of a list, didn't know about using a symbol for this purpose. Maybe a switch to select between the current way and the dictionary way, if it doesn't require significant coding? On reflection, maybe better to select symbols/numbers at beginning/end or dictionary?
