Environment: Claude Code desktop app, Windows 11

Feedback: A recent update changed how conversations/sessions are ordered in the session list, and there doesn't appear to be any way to get the previous ordering back.

The Ctrl+S grouping toggle (group by state vs. group by directory) doesn't restore the old behavior, and there's no settings.json or /config option for session ordering.

Request: Please either revert to the previous ordering or add a setting to choose the sort/ordering mode (e.g., simple recency-based list). Changing the ordering with no opt-out disrupts muscle memory for finding recent sessions.
