["Christian Carlow (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Christian Carlow commented on OFBIZ-6456:
-----------------------------------------

Once this is implemented I would like to test apply at at ordermgr/control/FindRequest for cleaning up the find form which is fairly difficult to interpret as of right now.  If it works there it will make find forms faster to deploy only requiring <ignored> and special find controls like <drop-down>, <radio> to be defined.

> Make <auto-fields-entity> sort by field type by default

> IMO, form widgets are generally easier to interpret when the field types are sorted by type but this has to be done manually using <sort-order>.  I propose improving auto-fields-entity to sort fields by type by default such as text, then dates, then numbers, etc.
