Wrong sort order when slash (/) in ebook name
I'm just maintaining my libraries and I've found a very strange thing.

If the ebook name contains slash symbol, it does not order names well. As shown in image. Other way, putting date as "2011 04" sort is ok.

I do not know if I'm missing something or if this is a bug or a limitation in sorting.

Yum!!!!

Just noticed it sorts as Date by Name. That is: 2010/11 is November 2011, and sort as "November 2011" instead of numeric 2011/11 string!!!

Any way to change this? Or better, having it sorted by Year/Name? For example:

January 2011
February 2011
March 2011
...
January 2012
...

One way you might try is to use . instead of /

2011.11
2011.12
2010.08
etc.
Or even a -

2011-11
2011-12
2010-08

Currently I'm using "Analog SFF yyyy mm" for single numbers and "Analog SFF yyyy mm-mm for double ones.
