Description

As far as I can tell the plugin's reports are presented in alphabetical order in the "Project Reports" menu. While having "About" come first seems natural, some of the other menu items (in particular, "Source Repository") are placed less than optimally. Why not make this configurable, e.g., by making the order significant in which the report elements occur in the plugin's configuration?
