I got this feedback from work (by Mark Adam):
It would be nice if the file attachments could be sorted by Size, Date,
or Who. Page-wise this could just be a link anchored to the title of the particular column.
This would be a nice feature for topics that have a big file attachment table. The UI needs to be figured out because there need to be help links and sorting links.

For those with IE there's a short Javascript mechanism that can sort client side. But, I guess we need the more general solution which will sort server side. If we offer for attachment tables, perhaps it should be offered for all tables.

I've implemented a plugin that performs this function and works for any table - see
TablePlugin. Please give it a try - not yet tested under modPerl (with it's extra error checking).
