Hi Smit,

That was my original thought. But using other settings Image-groups sorting
does change.

I have created 3 albums to test it:
2001
2002
2003
Using "Edit Albums" I have set the year to each folder (2001 to 2001 and so on,
by default all folders have the same date, so this test won't work).

These settings...
1.View -> Sort Images -> By Date
2.View -> Image Sorting Order -> Descending
3.View -> Group Images -> By Album
...produce this order:
2003
2002
2001

These settings...
1.View -> Sort Images -> By Date
2.View -> Image Sorting Order -> Ascending
3.View -> Group Images -> By Album
...produce this order:
2001
2002
2003

As, you see, current behavior seems inconsistent: 
if you use Sort Images -> By Date, order of albums does change, 
but if you use Sort Images -> By Name, order of Albums doe not change.

This made me think that it is a bug. I have tried to find similar bug reports
and stumbled upon some comments about removed menu entries considering sorting
of Albums (there is no way to sort them now), so that might be related to this
bug/inconsistency.
