Summary0018890: Change in behaviour when changing main panel sort sequence; new behaviour is less good.
Descriptionversion: 2609
Change in behaviour MM4 => MM5; new behaviour is a degradation.
Extra step introduced when changing panel sort sequence in some circumstances; see steps

Steps To ReproduceSetup. Sort panel to AlbumArtist>Album sequence
Aim to change to AlbumArtist>TrackTitle sequence

1> Click AlbumArtist label
     In MM4 this removed the Album sub-sort, and the User could then ctrl+click Title to introduce the new sub_sort ... note: Album sort direction is unaffected
     in MM5 the sub-sort is removed, but the Album sort direction is also toggled Ascending<-->descending, requiring a 2nd click to restore Album seq, before adding the new sub-sort

Rusty, please revise this request, I am not sure, what is best behavior in this case, I have met both approaches.

I agree with the proposal. i.e.
- If a sort is active on multiple columns, then clicking any column should trigger the default sort for that field (e.g. ascending for Artists, Descending for ratings, etc...)
- If a sort is active on only a single column, then clicking that column should revert the sort
- If a sort is active on a single or multiple columns, then clicking that column while pressing CTRL should revert the sort direction for that column without changing the field's sort order
