Feature Request: Sort feature to skip articles in alphabetical sort orders
Currently when viewing a list of media files, the file shows up in a different sort order than the media file would show up in the Movies, Music or TV apps in iOS and TVOS. Most media apps skip the article at the beginning of the title (Skip articles in titles beginning with A, An, The). An example would be the movie The_Chronicles_of_Riddick appearing alphabetically under T in VLC, yet the movie is under C in the AppleTV app. Having an option for modifying the sort order would be helpful.
I am unaware if this is popular in other languages other than English to sort items such as movies this way, however ideally this could be an option within the localization settings for each supported language to define the languages articles where skipping these words for sorting purposes is applicable.
I would recommend the UI default is disabled, so that users are not caught off guard when migrating to a new version (if this feature is added) and seeing their files and folders sorted differently unless usability tests or beta feedback shows otherwise.
