[jboss-as7-dev] order of import statements

[Navin Surtani]

Yeah agreed. I think that having a standard way of fixing the import order list just makes for easy reading. And sadly, in my case I know exactly where I have to manually put in imports when my IDE fails to recognise something like java.util.List.

On the point earlier about checkstyles not being able to look at the import order I seem to remember the checkstyle tool on Tattletale being able to look out for that - because IntelliJ got the orders wrong. I don't know if Jesper is listening/watching but perhaps he could shed some light on this?

+1.

And I know a year or so ago a number of IDEA users tweaked their configs 
to follow the eclipse standard Jeff listed, so my vote is this becomes 
the standard.
