Original Title was: Maintain attribute order when using "Apply to..." to copy attributes to another Writer


I love "Apply to..." in Writers but it would be great if the order of the attributes was maintained when applied to another Writer. For example, you have a Writer with attributes in this order:

D
A
C
B

If you use "Apply to..." to copy the attributes to another Writer, they currently appear in the other Writer in alphabetical order i.e.:

A
B
C
D

I would like the attributes to appear in the same order in the target Writer as the source Writer they were applied from.
