Moving Parameters in family type

[aeloutaSEG38]

Does anyone know if there is any add-on for organizing your family type instead of manually moving the parameter up/down? 

When I have a lot of parameters and I want to create more, I have to move the parameters one spot at a time manually to keep the family clean.

Interestingly, from an API point of view, the collection of types is accessible through an unordered set, a FamilyTypeSet object, through the FamilyManager property Types:

For me, that begs the question how it can be ordered at all.

I've worked with programs like 3Dexperiance, SolidWorks and Catia. when you are setting parameters in those softwares you have the option to order the parameters as you please by selecting the parameter you want to move and selecting the tools of moving the parameter. afterwords you can drop the parameter un the location you need it to go

Please research whether the Revit end user interface supports this functionality. If it does not, the Revit API will not support it either.
