Description:
It would be very helpful if the File links section on image description pages could display (or have the option in Preferences to display) the pages used in alphanumeric order, including by namespace (articles first (talk), then images (talk), WP (talk), User (talk) etc) in order to make it easier for editors to find usages of images, as well as grouping certain kinds of usage together. For instance, if the pages were sorted by namespace (article space first), one could see at a glance a rough count of how many articles used the image, instead of having to hunt through the list to find anything without a namespace tag. Likewise, if certain images were not meant to/only meant to be used in a certain namespace (Wikipedia:, User: or Talk:) it would be easier to find instances of use/misuse, as each namespace would be grouped together.
First time I've used Bugzilla, let me know if I've done anything wrong as I do want this to be taken seriously. The lack of this feature has been bugging me for quite some time (pun maliciously intended).
