I'm not talking about the physical layout of the data, just a thin UI layer that the DB tool could use. Maybe we could have two modes: physical vs UI ordering?

As mentioned by another comment: you can use views for that.
Views are not a good solution for this. The point is to be able see a specific order in 3rd party apps and when writing quick add-hoc queries (select *). Writing views for every table would just pollute the db.
