Copy from source forge. When you select a persistent history item (or any item), it moves to the top of the list.
The idea is to have the list be static and not reorder itself...
This happens because the persistent items are simply a flag in a single list, so when an item from the persistent menu is selected, it re-orders the list. This is a function of how the persistent history was implemented...an add on to existing functionality.
