[request] [ios] Sort Documents\Playlists alphabetically

It would be nice if the playlists that are in the playlist folder in the documents could be sorted alphabetically. Now they seem to be in a random order.

Not sure if this will prove relevant to your scenario, but I noticed that playlists in my car seemed to be sorted randomly. Turns out they were being sorted by most recently modified. On my Windows laptop I use an app called AllSorts to facilitate a Unix style "touch" command, which basically updates the modified date/time. So, I Select All files in the folder containing the playlists, right-click, find AllSorts, then use the "Touch (set date)" option. Just in case, I've already sorted the files in said folder alphabetically. Not sure if that matters, but can't hurt.  After I do that, the playlists sort alphabetically in the car's display.

There are other options to apply the "touch" command in Windows. I just settled on AllSorts, as it was the first one I tried that worked, and was easy enough to install.

HTH.
