Some feedback about the new Device widget (with sorting and renaming): I am ABSOLUTELY a fan!!! 👍  
It allowed me to reorganize my dashboards the way I wanted and in a much clearer way!!!  
Really very positive feedback from me 😉

Same here on my end, really pleasant… allows dashboards to be updated afterwards based on usage feedback

Hello,

This is very good news, thanks to all the contributors of this new version.

One question regarding this new widget; on my setup all the lights are named «&nbsp;Light&nbsp;» with the possibility of identifying them by the configured room (consistent with how the old widget worked for me).

Could the device’s room be added in the dropdown list of this new widget to make identification easier? Or should we consider that, with this widget being the future, we need to name devices in the integrations with a name that provides that detail?

Good question! I’m afraid that if we add the room to each device’s name, it will make the display a bit too long… Another solution would be to make a kind of «&nbsp;filter&nbsp;» during the search (a bit like the old widget, but on the new one, you know), a filter that could be deselected so you can show devices from multiple rooms in this widget

It would have the advantage of keeping the incentive to populate the room where each of our devices is located.

By removing the «&nbsp;Devices in room&nbsp;» widget, I feel that only the temperature and humidity widgets that use this info would remain.
