-------------------------------------

[~dmarrazzo] There is a jira to address ordering issues: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/DROOLS-2841.  My understanding is that we will be adding drag-n-drop ordering for the DT list, similar to that in the DT constraint enumeration lists. [~karreiro] is working on that I believe. Will that address your concerns wrt ^^.

> The Data Type editor could be improved in terms of productivity and usability.
> Ideally, the user should be able to create a complex type minimizing the mouse usage.
> 1) Saving the node is an overhead for basic data type (e.g. age: number)
> 2) Some actions in the kebab menu should be more visible and available even before saving the type (as standalone icon / buttons). Especially, insert nested, delete.
> 3) Select type in the selector by typing the name of the type (see screenshot): it already works but it consider just the first letter typed. Since, by convention, all custom types starts with `t` letter, it would be better consider at least 2 letters.
