Problem Description

Not sure whether it's better to bring this up on #4921, which addresses the topic of sorting playlist videos, given it has already been merged, or to open a new request on this. I can move this over there if that's better.

I'd be interested in the option to sort playlists based on video length. I've gotten into the habit of saving videos to watch later, back when playlists weren't finished yet, and I find that sorting videos by video length allows me to quickly run through shorter videos (such as shorts, or just shorter videos in general) before committing to longer ones. Videos I usually add to playlists can range from a minute or less to hour long videos. Having the shorter ones back to back means I can just get through them quickly (especially now that they're actual playlists that play videos back to back).

Proposed Solution

The feature to sort videos seems to be ready, but, as mentioned on #4921, video length was not an option added initially. However, such could be later added if someone displayed interest. The proposed solution is to add such an option. I am aware that doing so would add more clutter to the sort menu, and I unfortunately have no solution to that.

Alternatives Considered

I have been manually sorting playlists sometimes, though I do get lazy when I queue stuff and then it's 5 shorter videos on the bottom, below 10 longer videos, and I need to manually click the "up" button several times on each video. I don't mind that much, to be honest. It's a silly request that is probably specific to me.

Could also figure out some quicker way to move videos, other than clicking buttons numerous times. Though I guess that could be more complex to design than having buttons that move things around.
