Good for muscle memory. Generally if user has Source 1, Source 2, Source 3 it is in the order of relevance.

I'd be willing to support sorting the manual search result list by column (which I seem to recall was suggested elsewhere but I can't find a ticket for it now, feel free to create one), and if so I can see an argument for remembering the sort order for future searches, but I'm not going to add an option for configuring a specific (custom) source-based display order.

Use the same order as used in preference for sources to search

You said you will search disabled sources in manual search that's ok. So I am saying to search sources in order the user puts them.

and display them in the same order because

  1. good for muscle memory
  2. search results will not keep jumping
