      I would like that rg and release series would be ordered by

      Release group series automatic ordering :
      date of earliest release then catalogue number of earliest release then name
      release series automatic sort :
      date then catalogue number then name

      it is currently just name and thus series like https://musicbrainz.org/series/3b8fac97-b01b-4c76-b11a-ea080d39ed21 are not well ordered.
      they have many elements so a manual ordered series would be a pity to manage.

          I implemented the sorting behavior in the ticket description here, except I didn't have it sort release groups by "catalog number of first release," since I'm not sure we have any precedent for doing that.

          Sorting by date makes more sense for most release groups, releases and events.

          this one is automatic, it's ordered by release name.
          I don't think ordering by release name is any natural.
          ordering by release date at least would make more sense imo.

          And also it's a side-note but showing something like link order 4 in automatic series edits looks strange, neither needed nor easy to me.
