It's ok if the preset jump at the end after a brush edit. Even if I call it
a "mini-bug-or-feature" :-P
It can help while editing in a way, as Animtim said me on IRC  ; it's a
sort of feedback about keeping an eye on 'newly added brush' during a brush
tweaking session.

But I would really like a way to 'refresh' all resources in Krita without
close/reloading Krita ( and so, it would sort brush-preset alphabetically
after this action ).
This refresh would take into account new added pattern/textures/brush-mask.
I would imagine this feature under  Menu > Edit > Resources > Refresh.
 ( it would also help to close : Bug 325291 - [tag] new tag/group are not
accessible after creation - https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=325291  )

    Hi,<br>
    Some opinions about this mockup:<br>
    -The preset selector row is really important for me, very useful to

    gets removed. (by the way, I&#39;m really missing the option to see only
    presets from selected engine here as it was before, I filed a bug

    <br>
    -Having the engine selector as dropdown would make one more click 
    and scrolling the list to switch.. I still prefer how it is now.<br>
    <br>
    -Name field shrinked: that&#39;s ok as long as it&#39;s still long enough
    (looks ok size on the mockup)<br>
    <br>
    -Do we really need to add a rename preset when we can already just
