Arrows indicate the sorting direction of a column in "browse" mode. However,
they also appear in all other columns, although those aren't sorted (and
therefore cannot have a 'direction'). The arrows are confusing for a user,
and rather unnecessary, since there actually is only one global sorting
direction in the underlying code.

I propose to remove the arrows from all columns except from the one that is
currently active. This has the small disadvantage that you cannot change the
current sorting direction and column at the same time with one click, but I
believe the advantages of a cleaner interface prevail.

A patch that implements this is attached.

This has already been changed in IMP:
