Column names should not be sorted alphabetically

This can lead to all kinds of problems, such as genes being collected in strange ways. Three possible solutions:

  1. Leave it as it is, and tell users to name all their files "1_geneX" et al. However, this can lead to "2_coi2" and "12_ef1a" and other suchlike crazies.
  2. Allow gene names to be changed after loading. Not too complicated, I think, and probably the most likely eventual solution.
  3. Maintain the load sequence as provided by the user. Not as flexible as '2', and (I think) a whole lot more work.
