Question Using {title} or {title_sort} with save gives the same result

When I do a save to disk (or to a device) with a title of "The adventures of Tom Swift" and use as save template:
{title}
it yields the same result as with:
{title_sort}
being:
"Adventures of Tom Swift, The"

Is this behavior intentionally?

Yes
It is called Library_order

There is a Tweak for that if you want Strictly Alphabetical

Confusing. I expected {title} to be the raw (unsorted) version so the default tweak setting contradicts its name setting, but that is life . As I only want to change the setting for "title" (and do not want to interfere with any other default settings), I'm now using the temple format construct below:

{title:'raw_field('title')'}

This yields just what I want.

I suspect this a hang-over from the days when the title_sort field did not exist. I would agree that it would make sense if at some point the names are bought inline with the names to make things behave as expected.
