What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. When a list is opened it is not sorted. 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Prefer to track incompatible extensions separately which could easily be 
accomplished if they were listed 1st or last.   Also "works properly" is not 
indicated. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Win7, 64, with TB7.01 and FF6.0.2


Please provide any additional information below.

"works properly" disappears with the next Mozilla upgrade, and is needed in the 
list for review and changing extension status.

What's "incompatible" and "works properly"? As far as I remember, infolister 
only displays the enabled/disabled attribute.

In Add-Ons Manager "works properly" is when an extension is listed as 
"incompatible," but the user believes it is compatible and sends a report which 
changes the listing to "works properly."  And as I understand it, Mozilla 
notifies the extension's author of this and presumably if a sufficient quantity 
of such reports are received, the author will cause an update (or at least a 
version number update).  And there's one more listing "Compatibility problems." 


Both of these are caused by clicking on the down arrow alongside 
"compatibility" and choosing one of the 2 items listed.  And you're right, 
Infolister does not display this information that is needed.

Ah, I wasn't sure at first how you expected the list to be sorted based on an 
attribute InfoLister didn't know about.

You seem to be talking about the metadata collected by the "addon compatibility 
reporter" 
<https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/>.

I guess it would be fine to add that to InfoLister, but I probably won't get to 
it anytime soon. Patches are welcome!
