I would like to move a modifier (which I have already identified) to the bottom of the list of existing modifiers. Unfortunately it does not work and I don't get why...? However, if the object is active, it moves perfectly to the bottom:

#ob = my object, not necessarily it must be selected, it is found by a function
#smooth = #my modifier (found through a function)
for m in ob.modifiers:
    bpy.ops.object.modifier_move_down(modifier = smooth.name)

This only works if the active object is ob. Do I have to override the context? There is a similar question to this but I have no idea how to apply this in my case.

It seems that I have solved my problem by overriding the context members:

for m in ob.modifiers:
    c = {}
    c["object"] = c["active_object"] = ob
    bpy.ops.object.modifier_move_down(c ,modifier = smooth.name)

Any thoughts? Is there a better way of doing that?
