Keep manual sorting of open files when reopening project #4416

Description

Apache NetBeans version

Apache NetBeans 14

What happened

In the settings, Appearance > Document Tabs > Sort nothing. I work in a project and arrange files in the tabs panel as I see fit. If I close the netbins program, they will open in the same order that I sorted them manually. But if I close the project in the program and then reopen it, then the manual arrangement of the files changes to a messy one.

This happens both in the latest version and in the previous ones (13, 12.x and earlier), it also happens in Windows and Ubuntu

How to reproduce

Open project.
Open its files (10 pieces) and set their order yourself as convenient.
Close the project (not Netbeans), open the project again.
The order of files in tabs is changed.

Did this work correctly in an earlier version?

No / Don't know
