Few other examples
Character dialog - fine
Paragraph dialog -> not OK (I would start with Alignment; Indent and spacings
tab should be in proximity of Tabs tab)
Page style dialog -> after 'page' tab should follow the column tab, imho. No
strong opinion about the other items
Paragrap style dialog -> not OK. The sequence should also be somewhat similar
to the paragraph dialog

My logic is for general setting to more specific. And from more commonly used
to more 'exotic'. And ideally so easy to recognize patterns. So area tab is
always followed by transparency tab if applicable. And similar type of dialog
should have similar sequence

I admit there quite a number of tabs in certain dialog which I tend to put at a
arbitrary position

Other approach would be to set a default and being able to customize the
sequence; but feels like over-designing
