Yes, it's a hack, and that's why I have wanted to replace it with
something better, but couldn't come up with a perfect solution.
Discussion about it should still be available in the developer wiki, if
someone is interested. I think we all would love to see something
easier.

For now, you can show me the places where saving/restoring should be
done and I can add it using CBTConfig (I still see nightmares about
past times I have done it, so I think I'll figure out a way how to
do it :)

It's in BTModuleTreeItem::localeAwareLessThan(). The exact order is of
course a matter of taste, and I welcome opinions about that, but they
are roughly in order of importance, and similar items (lexicons,
glossaries) are consecutive.
