I completely agree with you Melonfresh.

I think it gave Kobo and interesting feature not shared by other e readers. I do respect that other people feel that title sort should be just that -- TITLE sort and that alone -- but books are more than their titles for me. My prejudices are influenced by the fact that I read a lot of fantasy, urban Fantasy and scifi -- often they have similar names and long series. Series sort worked so much better for me than the current way. I hate having to scroll through pages in a shelf to find the next in a series when it used to be so simple and logical and amazing.

I also feel that anyone who didn't like the previous way could use calibre to influence the series information to alter behavior.

I dearly hope that Kobo and those who can influence them will put it back the way it was. An ideal situation would be for then to give us a series sort option from the library menu,, like we have author. In lieu of that, please put it back.
