Sort types

• Status. Contacts are sorted by status in the following order: online, away, do not disturb, mobile, invisible, offline.
• Service. Contacts are sorted alphabetically by service. The services themselves are also sorted alphabetically, e.g. IRC/Apple, IRC/Banana, XMPP/Apple, XMPP/Banana.
• Alphabet. Contacts are sorted alphabetically.
• Reverse alphabet. Contacts are sorted reverse alphabetically.
• Conversation history size. Contacts are sorted based on how much history exists, letting the people you talk to the most naturally rise to the top of the groups they're in.
• Manual sort. In this mode, no sort algorithm is applied and you can drag and drop contacts to rearrange their order as you see fit.
