[Cuis-dev] [ENH] --- browser sorts method categories

[Andres Valloud]

Choosing the behavior as a preference works.  However, maybe this is 
barking up the wrong tree.

For background: my main motivation was that I got used to assuming the 
message categorization order was unstable (e.g. in Assessments, all 
message categories are meant to be sorted alphabetically, but for some 
reason this order kept getting lost).  So, instead of fixing the order, 
just show the protocols in the intended alphabetical order.
