 * woocommerce is a good plugin.
    but for the love of humanity will you not auto
   sort the stupid attributes. i want to add the new attribute after the last attribute
   i made not make it sort itself so i can sort it back to where it was supposed
   to be later. i dont want the attributes to auto sort from 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,
   8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 into 1, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 
   15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 2, 20, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. (that’s not numerical sorting)
   i dont want the attributes to sort from 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12,
   13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 saved and used that group then i add 21, 22, 23,
   24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30 and it becomes 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29,
   30, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20. (that’s
   even worst!!!) can you fix this? its really stupid, counter intuitive, and i 
   have to sort over 200 attributes and probably more later. any kind of solution
   would be appreciated.
