Allow Sort of "Your Library" for Spotify

I know a lot of people have asked about sorting playlists in an order for which you do not get a field.  However, in “Your Library”… Albums, my saved music, you have the artist name and album name yet that list is sorted by the order in which I added them to the library.  That makes it so impossible to find that I end up having to just search which gets tedious.

Can there be a sort option like “title” or “Artist” such that I can browse that list in an easier fashion?

 

I assume you can sort after you get the data from Spotify on data fields that are visible in the list?

That gets tricky if there are, say, 10000 items in the list, as you have to download all 10,000 before you can sort them. The music services servers might choke on that, which is why getting the music service to do the sort instead makes the most sense.
