Hyperlink Dialog

Suggestion to put 'Text' box straight after 'URL' in Hyperlink.

Usually in creating a hyperlink, one has the URL in the clipboard. So in LibreOffice one does Ctrl-K and up comes the hyperlink dialog, Ctrl-V pastes the URL.
You now want to enter the 'Text' for the hyperlink, so the Text box should be next under URL so you can just hit tab (to get to it) type your text and hit Enter key to commit.

Obviously for this logic, the Text entry box needs to be shifted up as the next entry box in tab order after URL, which is what I strongly recommend.

Screenshot of dialog attached.

If I hit tab, focus only changes between Help, Reset, Apply, OK and close.
