Sortable columns in the songlist

What i would like is if the columns in the songlist were sortable.

It would be great if i could just click on the "year" tab, and it would sort all the artist's releases from oldest to newest. Click it again, and it sorts from newest to oldest.

This should also work for the song title, click this and it displays the song titles alphabetically, disregarding which album it belongs to.

I'd also like a setting for this, so it would always display an artist's album by release year (I really find little use in the alphabetical album sorting... i just don' think that way.).

I would like that too.

You can already do this: try to click on the "title" tab.
Next if you want to recover the album sorting, click on the "album" tab.

I agree with you junk, and I would LOVE this! Actually, i force eJ to do this putting the year in all my album names, but...

The ideal would be if there was an option which can do the same thing - display the album years beside the album names under the images in the song list: "2003 - Album" - and of course which also sort the albums by year without need to do this artificially...
I think that should be good for the album list too, even if it's already done, actually the years are not displayed.
The now playing panel could also display the year of the albums.

That it true... it works for songtitle and album... so only artist, rating, genre and year remains! :)
