An User of Ubuntu reported this at Launchpad:
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.0/+bug/205779)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a directory with Subdirs (e.g.: file:///
2. Click on either Name, Size or Last Modified
3. Dive into a Subdir
4. Click on "Up to higher Level directory"
Actual Results:  
Firefox forgets the sorting selection previously chosen.

Expected Results:  
I expect the sorting selection to remain the same throughout browsing all files until the user selects another method of sorting.
