As far I know, with most computers, an ordered list consider 10 
lower than 9. Because it only read the first character. 
 
Asking the system to calculate the real value of each number 
would surely overload any system existing if you have an 
important number of files. That probably why I never seen any 
ordered listing doing these calculations. 
 
There is an easy work around: type 01 instead of 1 - even 001 if 
you think you'll reach 100.

The filelist does not sort releases with minor version
> 9 correctly.

The correct sorting should be

x.x.10
x.x.9
...
x.x.1

But ATM my projects filelist looks like this

x.x.9
...
x.x.1
x.x.10


See the filelist for my project for details.
