Hmmm... I don't think there is an existing feature to do what you 
want.  You can (or could, but perhaps not now) use the [sort] tag in the 
item list to sort the line items, but only by the value of some related 
field in a table.

Here's a stupid hack that does the job, you should put it at the top of the 
ord/basket.html page, and any other page in which the cart cotents can be 
modified (like ord/checkout.html):

[calc]
         my $cart = $Carts->{main};
         if ($#{$cart} > 0 && $#{$cart} > $Scratch->{last_item_count}) {
                 unshift @{$cart}, (splice @{$cart}, $#{$cart}, 1);
         }
         $Scratch->{last_item_count} = $#{$cart};
[/calc]
