You have to edit the Process configuration Source to re-order the list - this works for the Web version and I think it works for the Eclipse.. but not 100%.

They are listed in order under:

<configuration-data final="false" id="com.ibm.team.workitem.configuration.workItemTypes" xmlns="http://com.ibm.team.workitem/workitemTypes">

Example: Listing 3 work items types in order

<type category="com.ibm.team.workitem.workItemType" icon="processattachment:/workitemtype/enhancement.gif" id="enhancement" name="Enhancement"/>

<type category="com.ibm.team.workitem.workItemType.risk" icon="processattachment:/workitemtype/risk.gif" id="com.ibm.team.workitem.workItemType.risk" name="Risk"/>

<type category="com.ibm.team.workitem.workItemType.usecase" icon="processattachment:/workitemtype/ticket.gif" id="usecase" name="Use Case"/>
