Bug description:
Applies to 5.0.6

For example, if I use the following 'arch' XML in an inherited view:

            <field name="arch" type="xml">
                <field name="my_field" position="after">
                    <field name="field1" />
                    <field name="field2" />
                    <field name="field3" />
                    <field name="field4" />
                </field>
            </field>

The resulting screen will display the fields in the following order:

my_field
field4
field3
field2
field1

My guess is that the server is calling the 'insert after' xml method for each sub-tag in order.

The fix will be to call the 'insert after' xml method for each of the sub-tags in reverse order, so that field1 is inserted last, so it appears directly after my_field

I will use the position="replace" method as a workaround for now.
