Comment (by afercia):
@TobiasBg thanks for your report!
I looked a bit into your plugin. I see the order of the postbox-
container-1/2 is different from the one in core and you're using default
and also custom context for `do_meta_boxes()`. I guess that's fine, not
arguing :)
I think the root problem is that your plugin uses the `post-body` ID for
the meta box holders. Historically, the ID `post-body` is used in core to
identify the edit pages of posts, comments, menu items. It's heavily used
to target the core functionality.
Your collaboration would be greatly appreciated to make the core
improvements play nicely with your plugin. My suggestion is to try to not
use the `post-body` ID and adjust accordingly where necessary. Hopefully
that should prevent visual changes in your plugin.
I'd also like to point you at the changes from the ticket #39074 and the
related changesets [48373], [48460], [48465]. The ability for users to
reorder meta boxes is now much improved. Now, wherever there are
"sortables" areas defined, users will be able to reorder meta boxes also
by teh means of dedicated buttons.
