This behaviour is intentional. Each item in the journal appears in the order
in which it was last used. If you select an older document, a new version
will be saved. The new version appears at the top.

Sugar is designed to be radically different from how other systems deal with
files. The human interface guidelines make this quite clear. "File names"
and directories/folders do not exist within Sugar. Files are actually
represented in the file system as a unique id, which is not the same as the
file name that appears in the Journal.

It's certainly a difference. We consider this a feature, not a defect.

Best regards,
Tim.
