The question is what would be the best solution?

    1. Change the behavior for org-entry-put

    2. Or just for org-set-property.

If it is the first option, then maybe a variable should be added
org-set-property-at-line say, what could be t or nil.

Recently I use drawers that have a lot of properties, that I want a bit
organised, but if new properties are added always at the end, that
complicates things. What do others think (I don't have the feeling that
large drawers are very common).
