In practice, I think I change my sorting pretty infrequently. Nevertheless, I thought I'd share that idea in case it helps anybody else.
I just submitted changes for Kovid's review that adds saved sorts to the top-level menu. That makes them as easy to get to as columns. I will post here if he accepts the changes.
