There is, I just realized, a way to do it. It’s not the most elegant method, and it requires an extra step, but if you regularly have many today tasks to handle, you might find it worthwhile. The Forecast view can be set to show a specific tag (click on the eye symbol). Create a tag for this specific purpose. When you have such a tag, you select the tasks for today and assign the tag to them. They will then show up, doubled, under this tag. Not so elegant, I know, but under the tag you may actually order them in the way you prefer by dragging.
