--- Comment #6 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
 A fixed order works fine when the list if items is smaller than the view such
that it's not scrollable, because in this case you can see everything at once.

But once that stops being true, it's common for the packages/apps/whatevers
that are in progress to be out of the view, such that you're looking at a view
with nothing happening in it. We had this before and it was pretty sucky.
People complained that they couldn't tell that anything was happening and they
thought Discover was broken.

I can understand that you don't like the dynamic order, but returning to a
fixed order would simply swap out your unhappiness for other people's
unhappiness.

Maybe that means we need to make the order configurable, and let people switch
between "Alphabetical" and "Completion percentage"
