While I like the interface changes to Warlords, one thing bugs me.

In the city list (F1), they finally got the list to update/refresh every time you change something. Unfortunately, if you have sorted the city list (say, by production hammers), the list returns to the default sort if you so much as sneeze. This is annoying if you're marching through a sorted list making changes, as you have to re-sort your list after every change.

Would it be possible to make a mod so that if you have the city list sorted before making a change, have the list return to that same sort order on refresh?

I would also like to know how to fix this - a while back I took a look at CvDomesticAdvisor.py, but couldn't figure out what piece of code was causing the re-sort. (By the way - I found that changing the default sort column was pretty simple, but I decided I like having the city found date as the default.)

There are lots of times this issue turns up for me. For instance, when I learn how to build Research Labs, typically I have a lot of cities cranking out research, culture, or wealth, and I need to flip them all over to building Research Labs.

In vanilla Civ 4, I can just sort the city list by "Producing" and march my way down the list, but with Warlords I either have to hunt through the default list, or re-sort the list after each change in city production. It's terribly annoying.
