[gandalf3]

+1 to this.

Perhaps a simple way to do this without requiring extra options is to

default sort method since forever.. ;)

Here are some questions from blender stack exchange which may give some 
ideas as to what functionality users are missing..

I think David is referring to the experimental work being done on the 
file browser:
