        // Gjs wrapper for gimp_image_reorder_item()
    }

Reorder the specified item within its item tree

Reorders or moves item within an item tree. Requires parent is null or a GroupLayer, else returns error. When parent is not null and item is in parent, reorders item within parent group. When parent is not null and item is not in parent, moves item into parent group. When parent is null, moves item from current parent to top level.

Requires item is in same tree as not null parent, else returns error. Layers, Channels, and Paths are in separate trees.

Requires item is not ancestor of parent, else returns error, to preclude cycles.
