Added functionality to creation\modification rules

I am in the process of changing the way we run our account management to be a better fit with ADManager Plus which we have recently purchased. I can certainly see the benefits the product offers and it's also pointed me down paths that I may never have previously considered.

I have been doing quite a bit of work with creation\modification rules and I think the following would be useful:-

Grouping or re-ordering of rules

Rule 1 - City is 'Wakefield' and department is 'Purchasing'  = assign value 'member of'  purchasing & finance groups
Rule 2 - City is 'Wakefield' and department is 'Accounts Payable' = assign value 'member of'  invoicing & finance groups
Rule 3 - Some random rule
Rule 4 - Some random rule
etc

At a future date another requirement is added

Rule 25 - City is Wakefield and department is Purchasing  and manager is 'Captain Caveman'= assign value 'member of'  purchasing, finance and asset groups.

In this case Rule 25 is the same as Rule 1 with an extra condition, Rule 1 will evaluate to true and then rule 25 will also evaluate to true and take precedence (I hope).

This scenario makes managing rules quite difficult so being able to group or re-order similar rules together would be advantageous.



Editing of rule values 
 
It would be also be a benefit if values could be edited instead of having to delete and  re-add them. We tend to have a large number of groups and it's tedious to delete the 'member of value' and then re-add all the original groups just to add one more group at a later date.
