Some UIs use an up or down arrow, a caret, or actually have A - Z or Z - A.

And if I change to a different sort, which does it use?
I would say that each sort option has it's own sort order. After all, sorting A - Z doesn't make sense when sorting by most recent. This allows you to do things like sort by Author in one direction and titles within the author in another direction.

And if I am in the middle of the list and change the direction, which page gets displayed?
Basically, the same page.

And as you said, this is only an opinion.
