When I open the extension manager with several extensions listed, and I use the
move up / move down / move to top functions in the contextmenu of an extension,
the DOM inspector extension seems to corrupt the ordening.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.open the extension manager by Tools->Extensions
2.right-click on an extension choose move up / move to top / move down on
another extension then DOM inspector (which won't respond on the commands)
3.repeat this with other extensions or the same extension

Actual Results:  
the DOM inspector extension will not go lower then second place in the list,
only after move to top command on other extension. The other extensions listed
besides the DOMi extension, respond as if DOMi is not enlisted, leaving DOMi on
the second place or on top.

Expected Results:  
I should also be able to move DOMi, and DOMi should act on reordening as the
other extensions do.

Confirmed, I think it's a (no offence) "weird" option, why would one like to
shuffle those ?

I agree, the extensions should be just sorted alphabetically by name. 
After closing and reopening the extensions manager, DOMi is on top again.

DOMi isn't in the Extensions list anymore (bug 246316), and I can't reproduce
this with normal extensions.
