"Sort By" field can contain wrong movie title #874

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Add a new movie on your harddrive
      -> For example: "Pan's Labyrinth (2006)/Pan's Labyrinth (2006).avi"
2. Go to the importer in configuration
3. Now you'll see that it first finds the movie with "El laberinto del fauno" 
as title and then changes it to "Pan's Labyrinth". (Might go too fast to see 
when you only add the one movie)
4. Movie is automatically approved and added to your database

-> Now when you go to the movie manager and look at the details, you'll see 
that the title field contains "Pan's Labyrinth", but the Sort By field contains 
"laberinto del fauno el" instead of the expected "pans labyrinth"

I tested this with the latest release (1.0.6) as well as a custom build from 
the trunk today.

I tried this with the following movies: Gwoemul/The Host, El laberinto del 
fauno/Pan's Labyrinth, Der Untergang/Downfall. For each movie I tried naming it 
by its original title and the english one, this didn't make any difference.

I included a quick patch which solved the problem for me, but as far as I 
understand from the code it shouldn't need the patch and just work as it is. So 
that left me confused :)

I'm seeing the same issue. With actual SVN trunk version.

Setting the sortby field in the search-node contributes to this problem. There 
is no logic reason in my thinking for the search-node to do this. It is not 
like anybody of us cares to get a custom sort order inside the active importer 
screen within MovPic config, as the whole system is designed on new 
first-come-first-served files.

The details-node gets the actual info we care about, including the correct 
"title", so that to me seems not just the right place to set the sortby, but 
also the only place it should take place.
