Wouldn't it be useful to be able to sort the tree on each branching level:
Folder 1
|------Folder 1-1
|------Folder 1-2
| |---------File 1
| |---------File 2
| |---------File 3
|------Folder 1-3
Folder 2
|------Folder 2-1
and so on? A bit more complicated to implement than just sorting a (table)
column, of course.
Apart from that I agree with your assessment.
Cheers,
Fritz
