Synopsis: Sorting Threaded Message List Chronologically

Description of Problem:

When showing a message list chronologically (Date in descending order,
newest on top) and selecting 'Threaded Message List' (Ctrl+T) in the
View Menu, the messages are grouped in threads as they should, but
sorted by the OLDEST message of the group.

This means that an old thread keeps dripping further and further down
the message list (and outside the visible area) even though there are
brand-new messages added to the thread. In mailboxes with unread
messages, you're very likely to be missing new messages or, best case,
you'll have to scroll to spot the new messages. In mailboxes with
thousands of mails (as in my case), this is a hassle.

Suggestion: Sort message groups by the NEWEST mail in the thread
