Order of tabs within a build definition

Using the Plain Java API, I've duplicated an existing build definition based on the CmdLine build template into a build definition based on the Hudson/Jenkins build template.  I've got everything working as desired, with one minor issue....when I look at my duplicated build definition within the RTC client, the order of tabs is different than if I had created the definition manually.  This isn't affecting functionality, however, I'd like to "fix" this so my team sees the order they are used to seeing.  Is this possible?
