Title:
  copying collection needs to sort table by collection

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  New

Bug description:
  Currently in Mahara if I have a collection (Portfolio -> Collections)
  and I click on the 'Copy a collection' button I am taken to
  view/choosetemplate.php?searchcollection=1 (which has Portfolio ->
  Pages menu highlighted rather than Portfolio -> Collections).

  The table of results is ordered by page name rather than collection
  name, then page name.

  From what I can tell the searchcollection=1 in the url does nothing. 
  Looking at the commit:  86d8cc21d40343cb4bcd4a827d0f55887a01f2ec
  It never did anything but could be utilised to 

  a) have the Portfolio -> Collections menu highlighted instead of Portfolio -> Pages when coming from collections
  b) make the table sort by collection, then pages instead of just pages

  I feel these changes would make for better user experience

  Another way to make things a bit easier to understand would be to have
  only one 'Copy collection' button in the table for each collection
  instead of one for each page in a collection. (similar to how Content
  -> Notes now works for which textboxes are in which pages).

  See collection table mockup of what I mean
