I do not understand the ordering of the topics/tags in the new post interface.

Why are they in this order?

In anyevent I suggest the standard alphabetical ordering ...any else have thoughts?

This new Q&A interface is not very intuitive and that we get used to elsewhere (e.g. in SO). If we want to make it resembling StackOverflow closer then it should allow comment of the original question, without providing answer yet.

Hmm, I intended the above to be a comment on Jon's question, not an answer. Not sure how it ended up as an "Answer".

Because apparently 1st level comment is counted as answer...

You can easily add comments to the question by clicking the green hyperlink under the article "Add New Comment". Unless this comment is about to become an answer...let's see.

Thanks for the suggestion. Nothing changed in the ordering with this release, it's always been like this. We can update it to be alpha sorting.

Sorting of tags in the "Related Content" dropdown is now alphabetical
