Details

The place value is not taken into account properly when listing songs in order by their track number in the database browser. The playlist browser, however, is normal, so playback is unaffected. It just makes for a slightly more awkward browsing experience in the database if you're looking for a certain track number.

Example tracks 1, 2, 3, 10, 11, 12, 100, 120, 168.
I'm seeing them ordered like this:
1
10
100
11
12
120
168
2
3

They're supposed to be ordered like this:
1
2
3
10
11
12
100
120
168

I'm using r28323-101021.
This task depends upon

I remember a huge debate over something like this a while ago.

In the case of track listing, I think you are right. This is a bug.

My tracks *are* ordered in a "natural" sort order...

I'm assuming these numbers are track numbers, not track titles? (Because in the latter case, the ordering would be correct if no track number was present.)

The default tagnavi format does not support three-digit track numbers. This probably should be fixed. Does the following FAQ answer help?

On further reflection, there's one thing I don't understand in the original problem description: The default format always prints a leading zero for single-digit track numbers, allowing track numbers with up to two digits to be sorted correctly. But you show single-digit track numbers without leading zeros in your example. Are you perhaps using a custom %format directive already?
