Smarter alphanumerical sorting
I'd like to see better sorting when it comes to numbers. I understand that when sorting alphabetically "10" comes after "1" but before "2" but I can't see any real use for sorting this way, especially when organising music collections.
When sorting by track Winamp knows that track 2 comes before track 10 so why should the album Shine 2 come after Shine 10?
Is there any way that this could be implemented, such as different sorting rules when "words" that contain only numerical characters are being sorted so that they are sorted as a "whole" rather than digit by digit?
