List of keywords or custom lists shuffled upon adding a new term in version 3.6

[olivierfruchart]

In version 3.6 the order of a list (keywords or custom), was shuffled upon introducing a new term through the 'manage' action, upon adding a keyword and finally validating. Thus, starting from an initially alphabetical order, it was rearranged in a somewhat random order, which made the use of the list pointless. Also, typing a new keyword (or custom term) in the "Keywords" textbox, would not append it to the list.

Note: related to #2221 as the drop-down lists and management of keywords etc. has been removed from version 3.7, however are scheduled to be reintroduced on version 3.8. However I have been suggested to add my comment as a separate issue.

I'm not entirely sure how the use case works that you are describing here. Are you talking about this dialog and the keyword list?

For me it just appends every added keyword it isn't sorted or shuffled at all.
I need more details on how to reproduce this, please.

ManageKeywordsAction.java claims to have a sortedKeywordsOfAllEntriesBeforeUpdateByUser, but as far as I can see the KeywordsList.java behind this is just not sorted at all.

@tobiasdiez You implemented the keywords stuff as far as I can see, any comments on this?
