Description ianofyork 2014-07-18 12:23:16 UTC
Add ability to sort the document tabs on demand.

Right click in the document tab window might offer a popup menu:

- sort by filename
- sort by full path + filename
- sort by project/filename
- sort by file type
- sort by last modified 
- sort by last loaded    (the only option at the moment)
- advanced...   (maybe leading to a dialog box with more options...)

If sorted by project, then it would be friendly to have a spacer between tabs of different projects or visually group them in some suitable way.
