Config Actions cannot deal with field weights

Sorry if this is already documented, but I could not find it.

Maybe this should be an config_actions feature request.

Background

In How to extend an existing content feature - docs.drutopia.org it is very well described, how to create extending Drutopia features using config actions.

Goal

We want to add a field to an existing content type.

Expected scenario

• the config actions checks the weight of the new field, e.g. 3
• adds the new field with the weight 3
• increases the weight of the existing 3 and all following fields

Experienced scenario

• config action adds the new field with weight 3
• we now have two field with weight 3
• the two are sorted alphabetically

Currently we cannot go deeper in this. If there is a solution we are happy to here it, otherwise we or someone else might fix it at some point.
