Sort View Filters Alphanumerically

Sort View Filters Alphanumerically

The ability to sort view filters alphanumerically would be a very welcomed update.  On large projects, where numerous filters are used in certain views, it is currently quite tedious to locate a specific view filter since alphanumerical sorting is not available.  Instead, the user is require manually move a filter up/down in the list if they want to change it's position in the menu.

The filters are stacked in the order in which they are applied (drawn). Lowest first and so on. This is so that you can change the order as you wish.

@Thierry.A  While sorting manually is fine for smaller projects, on large projects and complex views, it becomes quite cumbersome, especially since filters can only be selected one at a time.  Being able to CTRL-Click multiple filters would be a step in the right direction, however sorting alphanumerically would be much more useful, considering our firm has well established naming conventions.  A search box to query the filters would also be really helpful!

Agreed - I may open this issue also if not being noticed
