Steps to reproduce:

* Open F12 developer tools
* Switch to the network tab
* Click on a column header to sort the table


Actual results:

It remains sorted forever, I can only change the sorting but not undo it


Expected results:

I should be able to reset the sorting to its initial state, for example by clicking three times or some menu command

Thanks for the report!

@Harald, we could:

1) use the existing "Reset Columns" action in Header context menu to reset the sorting
2) introduce new "Reset Sorting" action in Header context menu
3) use third click on the same header to reset the sorting for that column
4) or do anything else?

What do you think?

"Reset state" means sorted by Timeline, correct?

> 2) introduce new "Reset Sorting" action in Header context menu

I would go for both as they make the reset discoverable in different ways.

As suggested by @Harald, I've added two ways to "Reset state":

• Middle click on request list header.
• "Reset Columns" option in the context menu will also sort by timeline.
