Does anyone else agree/disagree? If its just me, I will shut up, but I think the parenthesis make the sort type stand out more.
For me, 6 of one, 1/2 dozen of the other.

3) Playing with this, I realized that custom sorts only go in one direction. Selecting them again does nothing. That makes sense, but it hadn't occurred to me.
The problem comes from the direction being explicitly provided in the sort specification. I considered inverting the internally-provided directions, but that got complicated both conceptually and in code so I put it aside as a bad idea.
