Feature Request - Setting to sort alphabetically

[still-dreaming-1]

I have tried to think through all the ramifications of this in the user interface and user experience, so what follows is my suggestions for all of this throughout the UI.

I have a long list of accounts and codes in here, making it difficult to find just the one I need to login to. Normally when I add a new account, I manually edit the list and move the new account so that it is sorted alphabetically. In this way they are all sorted alphabetically for me, which helps a lot, but I have to maintain this manually. It would be great if there was a way for the app to do this automatically.

However, I don't want to start the app, and then choose to sort it alphabetically again every time. I want it to already be that way for me. I think the simplest way to implement this is to make a setting for this that is also the only way of changing how it is sorted. The setting could be called "Sort By" and the options could be "Alphabetic" and "Custom". I think most people would prefer alphabetic by default as I doubt most users are already using the custom sort feature in much of a meaningful way. Or perhaps for existing installs that are updating, it could keep their custom sort and the setting would be set to "Custom" by default, but for new installs it would be "Alphabetic" by default. And I guess maybe the Edit button would no longer allow the list to be sorted in a custom way unless your "Sort By" setting is set to "Custom". This seems to make more sense to me than allowing them to change the order and automatically switching it to "Custom", because switching to "Custom" might completely change the order that is already there, based on how they last custom sorted it.

It could continue to remember how you had it sorted last, the last time you had it set to "Custom", if you changed the setting to "Custom", then to "Alphabetic" and then back to "Custom" again. If new entries have been created since then, they could appear at the bottom of the list, sorted alphabetically within themselves to make it easier to find what you are looking for until they change the sort order. As soon as they view the list of codes with the "Custom" setting enabled, it would save that list as their updated custom order, after alphabetizing the new ones at the bottom.
