Multiple sorting strings

It's now possible to enable TV sorting, enter a sorting string and select what categories the sorting should apply to. It'd be nice to be able to enter a different sorting string per category, as you can also set different folders for them in the categories section, it would be logical to have different sorting strings per folder.

Nice idea, but it would also make the UI a lot more complicated or at least require substantial redesign.
I'm sympathetic to the idea, but I don't think a high priority is justified.

Glad you like the idea, thanks for the reply. I think it shouldn't have to make the UI that complicated. Just list the categories in a table below each other, something like this:
Category | Enabled | Sorting string | Testdata
The presets could work on the focused sorting string and the processed result on the focused testdata.
