Description Edward Hervey 2007-04-23 16:33:02 UTC 
When having several sources, it would be good to have different sorting methods.

* Sort by date
* Sort by duration
* Sort by size

Possibly using the contextual menu

It could be nice if sorting could be achieved simply by having clickable listview headers in the source list. We need more metadate columns.

Okay, I'll put this bug to rest now, because:
- The media library is now alphabetically sorted (see below)
- Live searching makes sorting a bit pointless.
- At some point we'll rework the way stuff is presented with bug #708332
- I never personally felt the need to sort by duration/filesize/date, however if someone does care enough about this feature, I'll happily accept patches.

    We do not care about the case and the full path, but we only care about the 
    of the uris (with the same case)
