I had a hard time parsing this section.  Does this restatement match
what you're asking for?

=======
When importing an .ics file or subscribing for the first time to a
collection where triage-status isn't shared, set DONE items
triageStatusChanged attribute (the attribute that controls sorting
within a section) so that older events are sorted later.
=======

It seems to me this is the desirable behavior for items in LATER, too,
not just DONE; if the initial sort order was going to be random or
arbitrary, it'd be nice for all newly imported items to be sorted based
on the relevant date, not which item we happened to import first, which
is what happens now.

Usually there aren't very many NOW events in any given .ics file or
collection, but I suppose the sort for those few NOW events would
ideally be the reverse of DONE, events in progress that start earlier
appear higher on the list?

Sincerely,
Jeffrey
