Maintain sort order when adding preset categories
in progress

Hi,
I'm importing my categories from a YNAB export using the "Add Preset Categories - Custom (Advanced) workflow by pasting categories and subcategories as a text list.
So far this is working great.
However the sort order of categories and subcategories is changed and sorted alphabetically which is not ideal as I have everything custom ordered from most to least important.
I would love if the import would maintain the sort order of the pasted text :)

Maintain category order in Custom (Advanced) import

When creating categories using "Add preset categories" > "Custom (Advanced)", categories and subcategories are not added in the same order in which they are entered.
Currently, category groups appear to be sorted based on their leading emoji, while subcategories are alphabetized based on their category names. This means that if a user enters their categories and subcategories in a specific custom order, that order is lost after the categories are created. Ideally, category groups and subcategories should stay ordered as entered.
