The reason its not there... is spelled QML...

Nonsense. It is not like selection policies got much love in QML either.

I imagine, as often, its not a lot of code, but I wonder why this basic, expected behaviour is not in all the selectable views in the first place?

I like to use PersistentIndex a lot in my background data update code, so I will try to come up with a solution here. I will post the code later.

    If you need to do this, it's actually not hard to do.

    Catch the sort just before it happens. Grab the current selection. Map
    the indexes to the source model. Sort. Remap the indexes to the new
    selection. Apply to the view.

    It might look at bit complicated in text, but the code is
    straightforward and easy to do.

    You can probably make it even simpler by using a persistent index.

    It's been years since I last did this, so I can't give you more
    details.
    But I remember that it wasn't hard to do.

    Bo.
