Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

One can sort annotations by ID, update-time and z-order. None of these options guarantees a stable order of annotations across different sessions. For example: If I wanted to annotate each image with three tags, each having one attribute to set, the order of tags in the display will not be consistent.

Describe the solution you'd like

I need a "sort by" function that will result in the same order of the three tags for each frame. An idea would be to be able to sort annotations alphabetically by label name.

Describe alternatives you've considered

The available sorting methods are not stable across sessions. First I believed sorting via ID would be a valid solution, but the ID refers to a client ID that can change after a page refresh (if I understood correctly).
