[resolved] sorting the "Table of Tags" by post count (3 posts)

    i couldn't find anything related to this in any of my searches, so here it goes...

    on my blog, we used to go tag crazy and tag everything we blogged or podcasted about. i've since seen the error of my ways, and i culled the number of tags per post down quite a bit.

    however, this has left us with a lot of tags in our system. it gets annoying when tags try to auto populate, and i don't want all these tags with a post count of 0 or 1 to be hanging around.

    so i've been playing around on /wp-admin/edit-tags.php and editing tags down, but this would be a lot easier for me if i could sort the tags by their post count.

    in the source code, the "Posts" (the post count field) on the edit-tags.php page is labeled as "posts num" -- but i don't know what search criteria i need in the URL to get the tags table to sort by that posts num! i've tried both /wp-admin/edit-tags.php?taxonomy=post_tag&posts_num=0 and /wp-admin/edit-tags.php?taxonomy=post_tag&posts=0 to no avail.

    any help/suggestions are greatly appreciated!

    Don't waste your time--wait for 3.1 as that will be one of the new features.

    New test version of 3.1 can be found at http://wordpress.org/download/nightly/
