In the Find & Replace screen, Find column, there is a box that when touched sorts the list of finds. In many cases, the usefulness of the list is destroyed if it is sorted; entries must all be re-keyed. It would be very helpful to have an option the AWB user could set so that the sort box would not be presented for a particular list @Hmains 19:09, 28 August 2010 (UTC)
Actually, this little sort box in the find column header is not always present: sometimes there, sometimes not. ?? @Hmains 03:16, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

Hmains now we provide a Cancel button. Is this satisfying?

I noticed that new button and it is comforting to have. Thanks. Still, it would not help when I have just added/changed many entries in the table and am checking that they are ok and then mistakenly sort everything and destroy my work. Now I can avoid saving and thus destroying my previous-to-this-session work, but I cannot unsort what I just did. If unsort cannot be done (or more generally undo whatever I just did), even a pop-up confirmation message asking 'do you really want to sort this table?' allowing escape before doing the sort would be helpful.
