Summary	0004744: Tracks sorted Path/Filename don't display in correct order when Track# is key to the sort
Description	When MM sorts tracks by Path or by Filename (as they are by default in the Location or My Computer nodes)--> track 1 appears then track 11, then track 2 instead of track 1, 2, ..., 11. This regression occurs due to the change in the Track# mask. Note: windows explorer sorts the tracks correctly.

rusty 2008-06-02 21:05 administrator ~0014163	To clarify: it's a regression in the sense that this issue never plagued users before now. Now it's an issue because of the fact that by default we don't force <Track#:2>.
