Let cm_SrcNegOrder really reverse sort order

cm_SrcNegOrder, cm_LeftNegOrder and cm_RightNegOrder only reverse the sort order of the primary sort key. It makes more sense to me that it would also reverse the order of additional sort keys. That way the list will be completely reversed.

Sorry, currently this isn't planned.
You can reverse the order of secondary keys with Ctrl+Click on their headers.

Why not? Do you think the current behavior makes more sense?

Yes I do! When you click on the header (with Ctrl or without), it only reverses that header. Without Ctrl it even removes the additional sort orders...

I haven't talked about clicking any header. How do I click on a header by using the command cm_SrcNegOrder? cm_SrcNegOrder <column number> ?

cm_SrcNegOrder reverses the current sort order. But not when sorting using additional sort keys.

cm_SrcNegOrder is like Ctrl+clicking on a column to reverse its sort order.

I don't want to make such an important change now, sorry. I think it would need new commands like cm_SrcAllNegOrder os similar.

Correction: cm_SrcNegOrder is like Ctrl+clicking the column header that is the primary sort key.

That is of course a possible solution. But that would only make sense to me if you can (optionally) specify a column with the normal cm_SrcNegOrder command.
