Statistics Page UI/UX enhancements

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Allowing the Statistics page to be the homepage – I thought that I read somewhere that this was possible, but can’t find any documentation of it. If it’s not possible, it should be!

Allowing users to re-order stats panels (either by editing a number field, or dragging and dropping). The fact that one needs to remake all the panels in order to switch the order they display in is really cumbersome.

Allowing users to more directly interface with calculated queries in the stats panels. Currently, the stock % calculation queries cannot be altered these queries are too one-size-fits all to be very useful – my collection displays “84+% imaged” because most lots have an attachment record that links to a ledger scan. But I can’t make a % based query that shows the proportion of lots that have specific types of attachment associated with them (i.e. a photograph of the specimen, a photograph of the labels, an SEM, an x-ray, etc).

Describe the solution you'd like

• allow for adding statistics to homepage; (matching or enhancing sp6 capability, see Replace Welcome page with a dashboard #997)
• allow to reorder stats categories with either drag-and-drop or entering order value per category
• more granular calculated query data
