Note that the columns are selected in advance.
The reason I wanted the Multi-column option in Favorites was to avoid inadvertently selecting the first item: reverse the current primary key.

Pretty sure it goes awry when I switch libraries via calibre://show-book links to 'books' in other libraries. My attraction to Sort By was its potential to replace my usage of View Manager. Not that's there's anything wrong with VM, but… less is better, least is best - I should put that in my sig.
