Dear Arnold,

This sounds good to me ... though you might want to make it so,
that this option can be set within the tree, to have diferent parts
of the tree sorted by different methodes ... the option would then
affect all nodes directly below the node where the option is
defined and all thereir children unless they would define another
option themselfes ...

cheers
