[Github-comments] [geany] Make it possible to define default symbol_list_sort_mode (#581)

[Colomban Wendling]

@kugel- the current version here looks like this:

Regarding the drop down, I don't think it's a great idea for this as there are only 2 options and we already have radio options for similar cases.  But we use both somewhat randomly so, well.

> What about using "Default sort mode:" or "Initial sort mode:" for the label? It might make it clearer the settings is applied only upon file opening but not if the settings is changed later.

Why not indeed, done in my followup patches: https://github.com/b4n/geany/commits/wip/techee/symbollist_sort
There are two commits: [one changing the UI and the settings layout](https://github.com/b4n/geany/commit/cda78b994cb6a74ae02b487d25e8c709eea9bed8), and [one switching to stash prefs because it's shorter and simpler](https://github.com/b4n/geany/commit/7738a1fdc868aa68e28820f0c87f4479013069c4).  Feel free to squash at your convenience, even making one single commit from yours and mine.
