--- Comment #3 from Nick Leverton <nick at leverton.org> ---
Thankfor for a very handy file search tool.  I recognise that date formatting
is very limited in KDE5 by what is implemented in Frameworks, but using the
system Long date format is just about the worst possibility for speedy
comprehension when one is searching for a particular file.  If it's not
possible to have the ISO date, please could we have the system Short format
instead of the Long one.  The Long date  is far from ideal.  it requires a very
wide column and the date/time fields are not in order of significance, making
it a  tedious and error prone process to read that column.

Mention in passing that Running kfind 21.1.3, I do find that the long format
dates/times sort correctly - I don't get the strict alpha sort that another
poster mentioned. But as a search tool, the presentation gets in the way, sorry
:-(

kfind 21.1.3, Ubuntu 22.04
