I have an IPropertySource with "Width" and "Height" properties.
Unfortunately, they display in the property sheet in the order "Height",
"Width", rather than my preferred logical order of "Width", "Height".
A quick trek through the code leads me to believe that properties are
displayed in the current locale's sort order, rather than (say) the
order in which I put them in my IPropertyDescriptor[].
Probably a hopeless question, but can I ensure that my properties are
displayed in an order I insist on (say, the order in which I put them in
my IPropertyDescriptor[]), rather than having them arbitrarily sorted?
Thanks.

Hi Peter,
This bug addresses the issue. Indeed, its quite a pain that the property
sheet entries are sorted ... Oh, well.

See http://www.javadude.com/eclipse/ for an example of ordering them
yourself. Not super pretty, but a simple way to fix it...

Gotcha -- definitely, the prefix wouldn't be translated.
Of course this is a hack... It would be better to come up with a cleaner
way to do this (such as explicit ordering, perhaps just an option that
allows the sort call to be turned off). I implemented this hack based on
what I could override easily.
