When the list is sorted by package name and you perform a search, the search
results are sorted by relevance (whatever that means, according to xapian). The
point seems to be that the search is performed also on description and not only
on name (btw, you can use e.g. name:grub to search only by name). It's a
feature, not a bug! ;)
Another reason (documented in the code) is that this is the order returned by
xapian (i.e. the library doing the actual search), and re-sorting the list is
costly. Consider that the search can be repeated multiple times while you type,
and every time we would have to sort the list.
Need to take a deeper look at xapian to find a solution.
