Just my 2 cents (same as in gnome-bugzilla 355152)

Cheap, general solution:
- Make an option available in Gconf to change between "ascii" "natural" (=the
current with respect to numbers that are NOT prefixed with "0" ) and
"dos/win-Style" ( prefixes with . in front of the rest, folders separated")

Better solution:
- offer a per-directory config option in addition.
Reason: on my "linux" files, I can live perfectly happy with "natural" sort
order though it "feels" sometimes "weird" and "buggy" - but I do have to mount
a lot of stuff created under windumb - so "win-style" Order should be default
for ntfs-partitions and be selectable for all those dirs from my co-workers
that have all the "!" "__" "_" etc. prefixing to put important stuff, such as
"_main.cpp" on top of a source dir.

It would be so nice to find a solution that offers - thoug hidden in gconf -
choice over the flame war going on here..
