Keep front matter organized from archetype after build

I’d like to be able to set up commented groups in my archetypes to make editing easier. When I do hugo new however, it strips comments, eliminates whitespace and sorts the fields alphabetically. Is there a way to disable that?

# Main
title				= "title"
slug				= "slug"
description			= "insert description here"

# Comments
disqus_identifier	= "this needs to be unchangeable and unique"

# Taxonomies
tags				= ["tag1", "tag2"]
categories 			= ["cat1", "cat2"]
series				= ["x", "y"]

No, and it doesn’t look like an easy fix, either - see:

Thanks for pointing that out.
