In the hashtag window, for a given hashtag, the list is sorted by file/line number. This is pretty useless for me, and my suggestions is to sort by name (I have many items).
For example, in a given source file, I have these 2 lines:

// #logging LogStartup
// #logging LogQuitting

They appear in the log window as:

logging_system.cpp:78 LogStartup
logging_system.cpp:79 LogQuitting

My suggestion is to list them as:

logging_system.cpp:79 LogQuitting
logging_system.cpp:78 LogStartup

This is a minimal example, but by suggestion makes sense if you have tens of hashtags spread in different files.

In the VA Hashtag window, you can group by file or by hashtag. This is the 5th button on the toolbar. Does this help?

Not at all. I am speaking about something else. I will try to explain again:

I have a given #hashtag. There are 100 references to this tag. In the tree window (grouped by hashtag) I want the "children" of the given hashtag to be sorted alphabetically.

One big interest of the hashtag system is to be solution wide; we can navigate anywhere with ease. The idea to sort by file (as now) has therefores little interest, at least for me.
But when I want to jump to a given solution point, this is a pain because the list is not sorted alphabetically.

This is an interesting idea. I've put in a feature request for this:
