For the second point, it needs to be sorted based upon the locale of the
user using LC_COLLATE. So technically you're both right. GTK+ is already
sorting strings properly using the locale, but since we have no way to
indicate to GTK+ that a random row is a file versus a folder we are
currently hardcoding it to directories before files. We need to
determine if some method exists to notify GTK+ so it could sort
properly. Another option is to add a custom column type and cell
renderer in treeview so we can customize the sorting function.

Incorrect sorting by filename of search results when grouped

Status in Linux DC++: Confirmed

Bug description:
In the search tab, when you group results by TTH, then sort, ascending, on the filename column, you get this:

- all grouped items in no particular order, then
- all directories in alphabetic order, then
- all nongrouped items in alphabetic order.

I get this in 1.1.0~pre1~bzr399 on Ubuntu 10.04.

I expected that the column would be sorted strictly in order of the displayed value in that column, based on the appropriate collation sequence. Separating the directories from the files doesn't seem helpful to me in this context and the treatment of the grouped items is really off.
