Well, it's all context related. On my linux desktop files get properly sorted already now with .9 appearing before .12. In fact linux desktop environments have been properly sorting such version numbers for years. So I don't even notice this on the PC I use every day. Looks like the Windows' file manager does not have that feature (yet) or perhaps it's configurable somewhere ?
