This ties restoring the previous sort order to changing or clearing the search, quitting Calibre and changing library. Reasonable assumptions, but not perfect. Especially since the library_about_to_change() call won't be available in older calibre versions.
For example, a user who has manipulated their sorts manually or with View Manager while viewing a list will have those changes silently discarded. This is especially unintuitive for a list where the user has 'Apply reading list order when viewing list' unchecked.
Ideally, I'd prefer to see this implemented as an optional feature, similar to 'Apply reading list order when viewing list'; and to not be applied when 'Apply reading list order when viewing list' isn't checked.

That is an excellent idea to make restoring the sort order an option.
