Can’t sort fields anymore

More than 4 years ago I was compaining that despite being able to reorder individual fields in Edit mode, it was not possible to reorder sections. In items containing much data this was painful to overcome ...in the end, I removed all details that did not require obscuring and placed them into the notes section, using copy-and-paste from external templates to achieve some level of consistent formatting. Then there was the sheer waste of horizontal space that meant browsing items required considerable scrolling to get at pertinent information.

Well, Agilebits have surpassed themselves this time. Editing items no longer allows any kind of re-ordering of fields or sections making it virtually impossible to achieve consistency amongst previously created items or those imported into 1Password. Furthermore, rather than provide a rich-text editor one has to faff around with Markdown even though the content is not destined for publishing externally.

Please can someone explain to me how knee-capping the editing functionality is anything other than a step backwards.
