[Feature Request] Contacts - Improve "Alternate Character" sorting

[Tbzz]

Hi,

I love the using the Alternate Character contact list, but the sorting used is currently a bit inconsistent. My main issue with it is the realm ordering.

For me it's consistently listing different characters on different realms at the top. Different list orders even with characters on the same realm and faction.

Currently, I almost always have to scroll and search through the list if I want to mail anything.

Example of inconsistent character sorting on the same realm

• Every character that starts with Sjoko is on Kazzak horde.

• Option 3 - Realm: Alphabetical sorting
• Option 4 - Realm: Manual sort

  • Option 7 - Additional Quick toggle for Option 1 in the Contact list (suggestion in attached image)
  • Option 8 - Show/Hide Quick toggle for Option 1 in the Contact list

1 year of this simple (IMO) request and still nothing. Was about to input one but fortunately searched beforehand. I even tried dabbling with the ElvUI.lua (funny this great plugin doesn't have a separate .lua, at least where most other are stored in the client's folders).
