Bug Description

When browsing in Gloobus-preview using the arrow keys, the order is not equal to the one picked in Nautilus.

Gloobus seems to keep the default order of files, but being a person who automatically sorts his files by name or date, this is not practical. EOG misses this sorting feature and I was hoping Gloobus didn't have this problem.

Nautilus doesn't provide any information about how files are sorted.. so I think there is no other way to solve this instead of adding a sorting option in config...

zekopeko, what do you think about?

Beuh.
I checked the docs a bit and you seem to be right.

Then I would suggest adding an option, or at least sorting by name by default (directories prioritized).
Right now, the order is not really handy imho.
