Selection lists in multi language applications - define the order of appearance in a selection list

If you have a multi language application and an lot of selection lists the entries appear always according to the way they are entered in the main language. But if you have lists where the most important entry shall be the first , the second important shall be the second etc. this order is not the best one. we would like to have a possibility to fix the order of appearance independent from the alphabetic order or location in the list

Example: engl. selection list

public, internal, confidential, stictly confidential should appear in

german as

öffentlich, intern, vertraulich, streng vertraulich.

    You can use a fixed order by disabling the "sort" propery of the selection box. In this case the entries appear in the order of the items added to the box or the assigned global value list and independently of their translation.
