I wasn't using the latest version of SqueezeCommander, but updated now
and found this option. But like you said, it seems to only apply to the
main built in menus, nowhere else. I understand what you say about
CustomBrowse, but is it possible to use chronological sorting when
accessing through "Browse by Selected"? I don't ever use the main menus
(they're too slow to scroll through when you have 3000 albums), but I
very often use the Browse by Selected feature (by, say, press and hold
on a song or an album and pick "Artist: ..." in the pop up menu).

BTW, kudos for not using -reverse- chronological order (newest first),
which many do.

I'm not sure what you mean. Could you be more specific? :-) (I have
around 3000 albums and don't use the main menus, except to browse by
genre (but that's just because there's no genre-search in the WebUI).)

Oh, I think I actually gave that bugreport a vote years ago! The
suggestion in the comments there about adding an ALBUMSORT tag is
interesting, especially if it will work in any contest (main menus,
browse-by-selected, custombrowse).
