That would be an option, although it requires quite a bit of coding effort to make this work. They will be added to the list in the server as they are, but the server doesn't have a means to report the position of the command in cmdvartab (so it can't give a preference value here). And also note that the order of the commands in cmdvartab is currently still a mess too, so this won't really help either. > that allows both sorting and grouping smartly. > note that this is just cosmetic, and not urging for 2.2.2... Sorting might still be a good idea, since it will be easier to lookup in the list if a command is used (you'd skip the remainder of the list if the command you're looking for is already passed in the list).
