[interface] - Sort Recruit by Language Name
When you Recuit in a game, I noticed that the recruit list is sorted alphabetically by id, not by language name. For Core Units and English this doesn't matter, since for these id & language name are identical.
However if you use a different language, the units may appear out of alphabetical order. Also, even if you use English, units from an add-on that have a prefix in their id field (i.e. A8_Elvish_Archer) would also appear out of alphabetical order based on language name.
I think it would be better if the Recruit list is sorted based on language name, so that all entries will appear in alphabetical order for whatever language is chosen.

Re: [mainline] - Sort Recruit by Language Name
This might qualify as a bug. Could you report it at http://bugs.wesnoth.org and see what they have to say?

Re: [interface] - Sort Recruit by Language Name
To me, I like having control on sorting the recruit list for my own factions. I dislike the alphabetical order and sort them by usage, with first the common used units (i.e archer, fighter...) and in second the specialists (i.e mage, scout...)SigurdTheDragon wrote:Also, even if you use English, units from an add-on that have a prefix in their id field (i.e. A8_Elvish_Archer) would also appear out of alphabetical order based on language name.

In each section, they are sort by cost. Yeah, it's made by sorting ID in alphabetical order, but I like it that way. And seem clearer to me, but maybe i'm a maniac
if it's based on language name, that will ruin my meaningfull classification
My writing frightens you? Consider you happy not to hear me :p
