Wouldn't it be great if Eclipse would keep all views in a stack sorted alphabetically? This way I wouldn't have to manually reorganize my views after opening a new one.
Is there a plug-in that enforces this? Or is this something that can't be done with the current public API and needs to be done by the Eclipse platform itself?

No, there are no plugins

No, there are no plugins that enforce this. That would need to be done at a very low level.
Instead you should define your own perspective, I think.
Actually the similar

Actually the similar function exists for *editor* tabs [1], if you use Extended VS presentation plugin [2]. Adding this to the *view* tabs shouldn't be a big thing. You can try to do it by yourself (plugin is open source).

You can try a new plugin version, which is now doing exactly what you've requested ;-)
