ImportOrder should ignore grouping order in static group as option about checkstyle HOT 3 CLOSED

To clarify, when static imports are grouped into a single block of text without any empty lines between them, I want them to be sorted alphabetically rather than in the package order. In the example above, java comes before org in the static import group even though regular imports are grouped with org before java due to the package ordering rules.

Right now Checkstyle wants this:

import static org.foo.Bar.*;
import static java.Math.abs;

import org.foo.Foo;

import java.util.Set;

but I want it to match Eclipse (above)--or better an option because I think others may want the current behavior.

just found this issue after failing to reconcile checkstyle and eclipse and wanted to say "me too"
