Description

The entries in the completion pop-up of the certificate input field (e.g. used for "Encrypt for others" certificates in Notepad or Sign/Encrypt dialog) are not sorted alphabetically which makes it difficult to find an entry in the list.

Notes for testing:

  • First certificates and groups are sorted by their "display name" (i.e. the part of the displayed text before the parenthesis with the other properties).
  • Groups are sorted before certificates if both have the same "display name".
  • Groups with identical name are sorted by their internal ID. (Probably doesn't make much sense to test this.)
  • Certificates with identical "display name" are sorted by validity, then by creation of newest valid subkey, and finally by fingerprint.
