This is a new arrangement, and is very, very annoying. I prefer a straight alphabetical list. It is much easier to see what parts of an application have been installed and which have not been. It is especially important when I am upgrading to a new version of the system, and at other times as well. I struggled to go back and forth during the recent upgrade. Maybe there is someone who likes things the new way. OK, but at least put in a configuration switch somewhere to help the other people. (I set a POSIX ordering at login, which puts capital letters before lower-case letters. I prefer this for files in directories, but if the configuration switch could also make this an option for Software Management, that would be wonderful.)
