Description

Map themes (formerly presets) are one of the most valuable and useful tools in QGIS but it is hard to organize or re-organize them when you can't rename them by just right clicking them.

Request that we be able to rename them by right clicking just like you can now do in the Favorites Menu in the browser (i.e., Rename Favorite) and you can do when saving or renaming layer styles.

a bonus would be if you could manually reorder them as it eventually becomes difficult to come up with unique starting characters to change the sort order, currently, I have to use combinations of date time stamps, exclamation points, 0.01, 0.02 etc and keep the names in a separate text editor to be able to paste into the new map themes to keep the same format when I make changes to the company startup template.

I support this request! the experience with the map themes can be improved with renaming theme and moving theme. Updating is "tricky" because it must be done with drop-down menus and if a user has many themes it is easy to get confused and mistaken.
