The UI issue, as I see it: there needs to be a way to "reset/clear"  
the sorting back to sequence sort.  But for practical purposes, MOST  
users don't want or need this.  For an average user, sequence/arrival  
sort doesn't make much sense (at a minimum, Date sorting makes more  
sense).  So we need a way to allow power users to change without  
confusing regular users with multiple sort options.
