Feature Request: Sort folders differently than files

[CubsWin1]

I am using simpleDLNA for podcasts and have the server set to sort by file date descending. It sorts the files exactly how I want them, but a side effect is that it also sorts the higher level folders according to their contents. What I would like is to be able to sort the folders alphabetically, but have the files within the folders sorted by date. Would that be possible? Thank you!
