We don't need to argue that. It neither elegant, nor fool proof, nor 
comfortable. Reordering the load order of extension to get some other 
sorting in different modules is just an evil hack that might eat your

I don't have a good solution. Maybe drag and drop for personal sorting, 
saving in user uc? But then I want the same thingie for the list module 
tables ;)

Or completely without magic, so an admin can reorder this based on Page 
/ User TSconfig? That might be sufficient.
