[X4U] Spotlight search results are not sortable by usual Finder metadata

[Michael Elliott]

I filed this one as a bug report.  Searched back through the  
archives...have we had our usual complaint-fest about this one?  I'm  
curious to hear the List's  input.

Summary:
Spotlight search results are not sortable by usual Finder metadata.  
Unfortunately, the files are not sortable by Date Created or Date  
Modified.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Start a Spotlight search, and select "Show All", OR use the  
command-F command in Finder to start a search.
2.  Notice the resulting search results window results are sortable  
only by Name, Kind, and Last Opened.
3.  Unfortunately, the files are not sortable by Date Created or Date  
Modified, two of the most useful Finder attributes dating back to  
System 1.

Expected Results:
The returned results should be sortable by any of the file attributes  
that are sortable in a regular Finder window, such as by Date Created  
or Date Modified, or by Label or Version.

Actual Results:
The files are not sortable by Date Created or Date Modified, two of  
the most useful Finder attributes dating back to System 1. Unable to  
sort by Label or Version, either.

OK, can we agree that they just FORGOT to include this feature in  
Spotlight?  Surely the glaring admission of this counts as a bug.  I  
know that someone out there uses Sort by Last Opened...but not me.  Am  
I in the minority?

Discuss :-)
