Description:
The Schemata tree view in the Query Browser displays the fields of a table in alphabetical order, which makes no sense considreing that when you are creating the table OR editing the table, the fields are shown to you in the order you created them in... the default for the Schemata tree should atleast display it in that same order with an option to display then in alphabetical order, but making it alphabetical order by default with no option to turn it off just seems like the wrong choice to me.

How to repeat:
Open any table and look at the difference between the Schemata tree view and the table edit view ordering of the fields.

Suggested fix:
At least make the default to show the tree view in the same order as create table/edit table and if necessary add an option to change it to alphabetical, but don't alphabatize it for no reason.
