First Seen should be the last property in the list, after "Last Played". The full list should be Title, Artist, Album, Genre, Rating, Path, Play Count, Track Number, Disc Number, Bitrate, Duration, Last Played and First Seen. > Anyway also found an interesting bug (I think).

Sorting by Last Played/First Seen works on the actual time, not how long ago it was - so Last Played descending will give you the most recent songs, and if in ascending order newly import tracks will get put there as they have never been played. Now that I think about it ascending and descending for those two properties may be reversed from what people expects. Maybe I need to reword it or swap the order around.
