BUG: Creation dialog does not sort properties by the given position.

[Benjamin-K]

Description

The creation dialog shows the properties in the order they were added in the yaml definition and totally ignores the position option. This especially is the case if one nodetype is an extended nodetype of another nodetype.
With the current implementation we have inconsistent positions between the dialog and the sidebar.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a nodetype definition that shows some (at least two) properties in the creation dialog. Add positions to these properties.
2. Create a second nodetype definition that extends the first one (superTypes) and adds some other properties. Try to set their position to anything between the properties of the first nodetype.
3. Add a new node of the second nodetype to a page and check the order of the properties in the creation dialog compared to the order of the properties in the sidebar.

Expected behavior

Creation dialog and sidebar both respect the positions given in the nodetypes definition.

Actual behavior

Creation dialog ignores the position properties and sorts properties in the order they were added in the yaml definition. In my case the properties of the first nodetype are shown first, then the properties from the extended nodetype are shown.

Affected Versions

Neos: 7.3.10

UI: 7.3.7

This is faulty behavior of the CreationDialogPostprocessor over at Neos.Neos. I'll fix it there.

Update: Here we go: neos/neos-development-collection#3992

This is fixed with the latest Neos release
