Prioritized poll response

Title:
Prioritized poll response

Area:
Polls

Summary:
It'd be nice to have a poll style available that lets you prioritize or order your response.

Description:
I know this is possible, because the company I work for uses it in their online training tests: a poll where the first box you click becomes "1", and the second box you click becomes "2", and so on. With a "reset" option in case you mess up or change your mind before hitting the "submit" button.

I wouldn't know the first thing about how to implement it, I'm afraid. But I can see a number of uses for it, as a finer-tuned alternative to multiple tick-boxes, where if people agree with multiple options on the poll they can indicate that they agree most strongly with some options over others, for instance.

What happens if someone agrees with multiple options equally?
