Nautilus 43 - how to remember list sort order?

Hi there. Another Gnome 3x -> 4x question. While I appreciate that Nautilus finally allows me to sort search results, it seems it now forgets the way I sort the columns, and instead always resorts to alphabetical sorting. So every damn time I open Downloads, which is like a hundred times a day, I have to press twice on 'Modified' and then find the tiny scrollbar to go up to the top again. So annoying. Tell me I'm missing something, and I can make it remember I want a particular sorting order for a particular directory?

I'm not exactly sure what's going on with yours. For me, it stays where I put it.
- It works for some column types here, like Type, or Accessed, but not for Modified or Modified – Time. Which version are you using? Mine is 43.2.
  
  43.4.
