Though I don't have enough power to implement this idea immediately,
combining it with "manual sorting" may be interesting.

Manual sorting is another frequently asked feature.
An experimental cheap code is here.
http://howm.sourceforge.jp/cgi-bin/hiki/hiki.cgi?SortByHand

;; * Rearrange the order of items in *howmS* buffer by hand
;;   * P, N ==> swap items (upper/lower)
;;   * M-p, M-n ==> move item to top/bottom
;; * Save the order
;;   * usage
;;     * M-x howm-arrange-open hoge ==> search for "hoge"
;;     * Sort items by hand with the above commands.
;;     * M-x howm-arrange-save ==> save the order to ~/.howm-arrange
;;     * later, again M-x howm-arrange-open hoge ==> load the order
;;   * bug, restriction
;;     * The order is saved only when you have searched with howm-arrange-open.
;;     * Order of multiple hits within one file is not saved correctly.
;;     * Wrong behavior may be caused when no note is hit by a search.
