I have been using the tag Data Types. This is an awesome feature, but would it be possible to set the order to alphabetical when I am creating a new tag.  
So right click on a folder -\> new tag -\> Data Type Instance -\> Random mess of all my Data Types.

It was fine when I had 10 data types, but with a hundred it is a little painful to play “where’s waldo” every time.

version 7.5.9
