If a column has an alias defined then DataWarrior should always display the alias instead of the original name. However, and usually invisible to the user, DataWarrior uses original column names internally to reference a column, e.g. when writing a template file and associating a filter with a column. Thus, if the GUI presents the original name if an alias exists, you found a bug. I checked the xy menu and some other places, but could not reproduce the effect. Do you have a small dummy file, which you could send me, that shows the effect?
It is true that column lists are not consistent regarding their ordering. Often they are in table order, but sometimes they are alphabetically. The xy menu separates two blocks in addition: Columns, which if selected would hide some of the data point because of empty values, are shown in red and are listed at the end of the list. A possible solution would be to have a preference setting regarding native or alphabetical order...
