As opposed to what? That seems like the right behaviour to me...
However, if I change my mind and want to sort by age then name, I''m
stuck; tri-state sorting as you suggested would help, but I think
multi-sort mode is always going to be a bit confusing since there''s
no indication of what the column sort order is. Or is that an option
that could be turned on?
