I think keep the member's name maybe better, we perhaps need them when
refresh source data. This problem may impact Field reference-- it uses
field item's name as base item now.

Ok.  So this problem is an existing problem, not related to the new
field popup window.  I somehow got that wrong impression...

And you're right; the problem is how this information is stored in the
file, so we need to fix the file format itself before we fix this in the
application code.

We can probably add another attribute to table:data-pilot-member
element, and call it, say, table:index (or something) to store the
position of the field member.  We would still need to keep the existing
"table:name" attribute for backward compatibility.

Let me think this through a bit.  Meanwhile, if you have any more ideas
on this, please share.
