Control how Explorer sorts items

It would be really nice if we could organize items in the explorer differently than it does by default. Adding the ability to control how the Explorer sorts items, whether it's something typical like alphabetically by name or something different like grouping by level, would help find things a lot quicker.

    Firmly agreed on this one - have been creating a dose of Annotation Groups and they all look grand until I move them to a new folder and they are sorted by what I assume is created ID or some internal categorisation as opposed to name. Very untidy and could do with updating. Sort Children Functionality similar to Element Templates required here I think

    Annotation Group Override sorting is really needed.

    Explorer sorts terrains by feature definition. Sort by terrain name instead. Feature definition is property of a terrain that can be changed.

    I would like to see the ability to sort Drainage and Utilities elements, too (nodes, conduits, etc.).
