A way to reorder posts?

Yes and no.

As said, I need a specific post to be the first of the merged duscussion thread.
Using the posts:reorder_posts option would place this “special” post right where it belongs in order of time, but that would be a no go.
So the list of actions should be:

  1. apply a new timestamp to a specific post (or posts)
  2. merge the topics
  3. run posts:reorder_posts rake task to put everything where it belongs

The change of timestamp available today is applicable only to an entire topic, and all posts in that topic will be re-timestamped according to the delta time applied.
