Properly sort variables on contextual dropdown lists

Hey there! I noticed when you’re applying variables to an object property, the variables list doesn’t seem to be sorted in any way.

I’ve uploaded a screenshot showing how my variables are set (on an external file), and the dropdown list when I’m trying to apply it to the gap of an auto-layout container.

    I have been experiencing the exact same bug since variables were introduced. It makes selecting variables difficult.

    Until this is fixed its going to be a major hindrance to the adoption of tokens in our design system. We’ve decided to utilize Figma variables as our tokens solution for designers, and have loved everything about its implementation so far, but this is a major problem for us.
