Comment:

 Currently the activities list is "unsorted" by default. The fact that it's
 sorted chronologically is a leakage of bundle registry internals
 (_scan_directory(): "Sort by mtime to ensure a stable activity order").
 The best place to implement the sorting is !ActivitiesTreeView (using
 model.set_sort_column_id(...)), but GTK highlights the current sort column
 and I haven't found a way to prevent that yet.
