"This can't be possible ATM, because most databases doesn't allow to insert a
field between two other. Anyway, this is still a valid enhancement request and
may be some days in the future database will allow those things."

That's the advantage of having the OOo frontend to the database: shouldn't we be
able to transparently wrap this functionality into any backend? Two
possibilities come to mind:
1) create a new table with the the old data but new column order, then delete
the old one
2) create an invisible system table for OOo that has the preferred column order,
and use it whenever presenting data to the user.

The first option is probably more robust, but also more computationally
expensive, depending on the number of records in the table to be re-ordered.

Cheers,
