ad. comment 5:
If I import the photos without renaming them and sort them by date then they
show up correctly in the digiKam main view.
If I import the photos and rename them #### on the fly and sort by file name
then they will show incorrectly in the digiKam main view.
If I import the photos and rename them #### on the fly and sort by date then
they will show incorrectly in the digiKam main view.

So this is a more human explanation of what's happening:
1- Some photos have an identical date when shot quickly in succession.
2- They are stored in the correct order on the memory card because the number
in their filename is incremented in the correct order.
3- digiKam's Import window lists them in the incorrect order, which means it
does not sort them by filename.
4- When imported without renaming, and the album is sorted by name or date,
they are shown in the correct order. This means that when they are sorted by
date and the date of two or more photos is identical, then digiKam falls back
on the filename (which is good).
5- When imported with renaming to ###, they are numbered in the same incorrect
order that they appear in in the Import window. When I sort by date, the order
does not change. This is weird. Why would sorting by date show them in the
correct order in point 4, but not here?
