    When will people learn to stop doubting me?!?!?

    I could add a feature for a custom icon size for these views, but since it only works in legacy dialogs, there's not much point.
    And given the fact that modern code dis-allows it and larger icons only crowd a dialog that can't be re-sized, it doesn't make much sense.

    But I did figure out a new trick you might want to include. It fixes a sort issue that has bugged many users for a long time. When you sort by name in Explorer, with filenames like so:

    The results seem counter-intuitive, because we want Windows to ignore .ext, because ' ' sorts before '.'. Well, I figured out how to do this:

    Neat, huh? For details, see my answer here:

    Indeed. I can see potential for adding an option for that, but it's doesn't look like a quick add given the care required in regards to virtual folders. It's something I'll definitely look into when I have more time on my hands.
