How to sort components?

Hi Ingo,

I would like to use the saying: “You hit the nail on the head”. I was about to add this as a wish. (Not the saying, but the timestamp thing 😊)  You reminded me to do so.

I have found that, since the component list is self-filtering as you type based on 'contains' in the component name and description, I don't need to sort and search visually, I just type the bit I'm looking for and the list shortens to where I can see the component. 

(e.g. if I have a component called rep_field_comp, or one which contains "Shows painted fields for an entity", I type cpt:field and the component is in a (now very short) list.). 

Since it's not a multi-select function, sorting is usually to allow for visual searching (am I wrong) the improved and (not highly) responsive search filter replaces it.

You do have to type a bit slowly at first, it frequently messes with what I am typing by the third or fourth character, but one gets used to waiting patiently for it to do its thing.
