Well, I don't like the UI. It takes too much space for only one
information. I would better like a combobox, with the two choices.

Moreover, it simply doesn't work on Linux. I've got an assertion failure
on OnPaint for the list. I actually don't understand why, but it works
without your patch, so I guess your patch is buggy here.

Something that would be interesting to add is a collation widget. Since
9.1, you can add a collation information to a sort. That would be worth
adding.

Anyway, please, fix the UI, try to fix the Linux bug if you can
(otherwise, I can do it), and add the collation stuff. Will be an
interesting patch to commit.

Thanks.
