Actually I think you can do this - with a Custom Transformer at least.
Simply move one input port above another within the CT definition.
Don't know if it affects feature order (tried it - doesn't) and it
hardly helps my argument since it obviously isn't well documented!

But even if it worked, what then? How does a user know what difference
port order makes? How do they know how it might impact transformers?
Oh, documentation!

I think in a lot of cases the dissemination of this info is driven by
a need that arises: I need to be able to do X - OK, here's how to do
it. That's why we so strongly advocate an FME community to share the
knowledge as required.
