Ok.
So like I said, I can sort the data (Bookmarks list) I get using the
Browser contentProvider but when I do, it only sorts the data shown to
the user on my App.
Can I overwrite the "sort by" clause the default Android Browser uses?
(btw, the default is "null" which is according to most visited
Bookmark + ASC).

If I extend the contentProvider class (interface?) and overwrite the
"cursor query" method - will it become the default one and actually
sort the bookmarks according to what I choose?
