Custom Collection Sorting

So, I've been going through the forum and there have been a lot of similar requests but I was hoping to just revisit this as I feel that this still isn't addressed.

I know some people want to have a collection which has the best (10, 100 or 500) movies in whatever order so that way they can visually look at their list and see what is the #1 rated movie by whatever list. This was never really an issue with me until I wanted to have a collection of the Top 50 Scariest Movies of all time (as study conducted by an initiative called "The Scare Project" )

I've added all the films that I currently have in my Library to my collection and have zero way to Order, rank or view in the specific order that I would love for these to be displayed.

Currently, I would like to see the movies in order by how they would appear in the list (which means Sinister would be #1).

I'm aware that we have the collection sort order (Collection order referring to the Collection Metadata > Display Order) and then the other parameters that we can sort on.

I thought of using Community Rating, but it has data validation that only allows values <= 10 so a top 50 ++ list isn't any good.  

Could we add another key in the meta data for Top N List or allow users to create their own metadata (maybe limit it to 1 or 2) per media type that they can add to a sort and/or filter list?
