I have numerous filters in Gmail and whenever I need to do maintenance is very difficult. To make matters worse, whenever a filter is edited it changes the order of the listing, so I have to look for reading all filters. At least there could be the option to save a label for each filter.
Is there any way or software ready to more easily manage Gmail filters?

Click Filters and Blocked Addresses. Find the filter you'd like to edit. Click Edit or Delete to remove the filter. If you're changing the filter, click Continue when you're done editing.
This has been a problem with Filters ever since Google implemented them. People have been asking for a way to re-order the filters since filters were in Beta. Google apparently doesn't care to address this. The only way I know is to export all your filters, edit the mailfilters.xml file that results, then delete all your filters, and reimport from the edited mailfilters.xml file.
Hell of a sloppy and error-prone way to do it. They should have a simple +/- & top/bottom button or column on the filter list page that moves the selected filter in the desired direction.
