Scenario: I have a View that is sorted by one or more columns. When I go to add a new record (either by clicking the + button at the bottom or by right-click > Insert row, the fields in which the View is sorted will automatically inherit the data from previous record. I can understand that this would be desirable in grouped Views, but not necessarily sorted ones, as this is sort of implying that the records are grouped and not sorted. This is especially a problem when using the + button at the bottom as i think most users would assume this would add a completely blank record and not a record to any particular group as the button is not associated with any particular group of records.
It seems this might be a work-around to prevent the record from automatically moving after it is created, however it might be good to find another way of implementing that, such as a delay until after the record is no longer “active”. A method which does not automatically add data is desirable as users often don’t realize that is happening and records can easily become tagged with wrong data.
