Bug 24480 comment 9 points out that the current system of adding subfields at
the end of the field isn't always what someone will want.

However, since many fields have a particular non-alphabetic order for subfields
(in a personal name, subfield q (the fuller form of name) follows a, before
dates in d) or a semantic meaning to the order of subfields (subject fields) or
a variable order based on how you use them (if I used 521 I might be tempted to
use $bFoo:$aBar to get a display of "Target Audience Setting Authority: Goats"
rather than an unclear "Goats Target Audience Setting Authority"), fixing this
will require figuring out what methods of specifying location can and should be
supported, writing UI to specify them, and either adding those methods to
MARC::Field (which only does "at the end") or just making "Add a subfield"
actually be "Create a new field by copying the existing subfields of an
existing field with one added and then delete the existing field" in the
backend.
