Custom ordering of 'want to read' | Feature Requests

This might be quite niche, but a direct way to prioritize which book I plan to read and/or buy would be nice :)

or at least, a way to filter out owned books

I'm a little surprised this hasn't been upvoted even more. Is anyone else treating the Want To Read sorta like the old Queue on Netflix, DVD era? I'm dating myself. But both in that old case and here: You add things you want to consume, you build and curate a list of those things, and then sometimes you actively reorder the list to have the things you want to get into next or soonest at the top.

This makes completely sense (filter a list by owned). We're planning to revamp the filtering options for airlists for mobile, and that could be a great time to add this.
