Hi, I'm not particularly familiar with this situation. But if you want to alter the way the sorting occurs, the best approach would be to apply this patch: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1672065&group_id=19984&atid=319984 it is [almost] the same code that is part of the 1.5 release, and allows you to define your own normalisation characteristics that will be used for the sorting.
