Could you detail why you would not like to sort the list?

Because it's the order that will be returned to the client, and if
it's a long listing it's better to let the implementation do the
ordering than do it afterwards. Consider for example if we were
listing files stored in JDBC, using database sorting over a lot of
files is likely better performance wise than doing it later on.
