alias sorting

[straef]

#3 refers to a feature of recalling the most recently generated alias. how is this done?

using firefox extension and the alias i just created in the extension is not shown in the top 10 aliases that are loaded when viewing extensions tab. i have to click load more.

i see that there are several sorting options for aliases, is this referring to those?

several sorting options seem redundant. ie "local part" and "email". i am guessing email would technically also compare the domain as well, but is this necessary? are people making an identical local part for multiple domains available with the service? if so, were they to select the "local part" sort option, what would determine the order of the aliases?

i cannot discern how aliases are ordered when a sort method that evaluates to the same result for multiple aliases. for example when "active" is selected as the sort method, with multiple active aliases, the list does not seem to order them based on any of the following: activity (an email being forwarded or sent), creation, local part, or "updated" (what does this mean?). similarly when i select to sort by domain, since all my aliases use the same domain, i cannot discern any logic to the resulting order. i have not paid attention enough to even determine if it is consistent across uses. it seems to be stable within a browser session.

all that to say that even if sorting is the intended method of helping retrieve the most recently created alias, it would be nice if a "last created" button or other shortcut was available so that any sort order could be used without losing the ability to easily recall last created. for example i might make an alias for a function that i use often and need to be able to quickly reference that alias, maybe as a address that is shared for business contacts, sorting to to keep that on top will eventually eliminate the possibility that new aliases will appear in the top 10. and vice versa.

methods to resolve this could include the ability to pin or favorite aliases making them appear at the top of the list irrespective of the sort. an setting to always show last created alias at the top of the list. a button to copy the last created alias, probably next to the "+" button.
