more sorting options

I use tagging in XnView to assemble "complex" slide shows as I find it cumbersome to add images within the slide show dialog.

It would be great to be able to have more options to sort tagged files (i.e. in the virtual folder displayed with Shift-T).

One option that would be particularly useful would be to sort based on name BUT also maintaining folder hierarchy.

I frequently have image names that are identical across folders (i.e. 01.jpg, 02.jpg, etc.)

Sorting by name (or date) mixes up images from among different folders.

Right now the only way to properly sort these slide shows is to manually edit the .sld text file . . .

Yes. User defined sorting schemas would be an incredible feature.

Esp. if a defining dialog gave us access to all metadata fields too!
