In my ideal world, the items should be ordered by importance. Probably should happen the same in your ideal world. Sadly, we don't live in our ideal worlds, because in those ideal worlds is required an extra attribute for each item which doesn't exists in the real world (something similar to the 'rating' attribute in songs). In the real world, it is easy to find people who renames their items putting two or three extra letters in the beginning of the file name. Something like: A-mother's letters A-brother's pages B-australian info ... a-this is not so important ... etc. Because in that way they can order their application by the importance that have each item, cheating the application that order alphabetically (evolution's folders, bookmarks, nautilus' directories and files, etc.) Even I found my self renaming a folder in my evolution's mail to force the order. I put a letter z in front of the name because it was the less important folder and sadly the name started with 'c' (with no chance to find another name with some meaning) and originally it was located in the 4th position between a lot of folders.
