Do Not Sort Coded Value Domains Alphanumerically in Attribute Table Pull-Down Menus

I'm developing a file geodatabase schema and I noticed that my domains are sorted alphanumerically in the Attribute Table pull-down menus, but they are in my desired order in the Domains view. Please do not force the order to be alphanumeric.

In addition, I seconded the ideas for providing more options to manipulate the domain order in the Domains view.

As noted in previous comments, this was treated as a bug rather than an idea, which allowed for it to be addressed in a patch. This is fixed in ArcGIS Pro 2.8 Patch 2 (2.8.2).
