I reinstalled Fedora 18 with KDE and I notice a change in the order in which directories and files are displayed. In some applications, the sort is now case sensitive, so that all the initial capitals are listed before the initial lower case names. Previously, the names were sorted without case sensitivity.
I see this behavior in Firefox, Thunderbird, Acroread and others. There are other application where the file dialog sorts files using a case insensitive sort, like Dolphin, k3b, or kget.
I edited kdeglobals to add "Sort case insensitively=true" to the [KFileDialog Settings] section. This should be the default. It did not make any difference.
Any suggestions on how to set the file name sort order?

Firefox and Thunderbird are for sure *not* KDE apllications these are GTK2 applications with *GNOME/GTK* dialogs from the very beginning

Is there some way to change the sort order for these dialogs?
