[Thunar-dev] Sort by MIME category

[sayan at crans.org]

Hello,

Like many file managers, Thunar has a "sort by type" option. Is this 
based simply on file extension?

Would it be possible to sort by MIME category? I would like to have 
images separated from audio and text files for example, with all known 
image formats grouped together. Inside a MIME category, files could then 
be sorted alphabetically or by MIME type.

Thanks for this great file manager.
