Sort search engines alphabetically once by name or by nickname...
-
Please add the ability to sort search engines alphabetically once by name or by nickname. The sorting should run just once, instead of being always on. So we can still stay in manual sorting mode for flexibility, and just run alphabetical sorting when needed. Perhaps also add column header buttons for this, like in the bookmarks manager.

@tsunamiz Please post one thread for each feature request, as per the rules for this forum.
Sorting is already very easy with drag and drop, but I understand that users who have dozens of search engines might want an alphabetical sort option.
I suspect that with large numbers of search engines, the most practical order would be with the most frequently used at the top, with the rest in alphabetical order underneath; so that the "Search with" submenu would look something like the screenshot below. Since the default engine can be used without opening the submenu, that does not need to be at the top of the list.

I have 20 or so roughly grouped by type of use (general search / maps / books / music / ...).
