Since the order the filters are applied can be important, there is no way to re-order the display provided. However, this makes it very difficult to find a specific filter in a long list. Either there should be a way to alphabetize the filters and then restore the natural order, or a search mechanism should be provided. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create many message filters, not in any logical order. 2. Display the message filters dialog. 3. Try to find a specific filter.
How about searching bugs to find bugs on searching filters...
