 * Sort Order by Date in WP Gallery (“in-built”) resorts to order by ID. Not sure
   if this is a bug or intended feature.
 * In the WP codex I am not able to spot the code that does the order by date. Simply
   using [gallery orderby="Date" ...] does not work either!

 * Strangely enough, in WP2.9.1 when you’re in the Post editor and go to Upload/
   Insert and select “Gallery”,
    there’s an option to: Order images by:…
 * If you select “Date/Time” it pastes the following into the code editor:
 * [gallery orderby="ID"] Now I don’t think orderby ID will order the gallery on
   Date/Time.
 * This must surely be a bug?

 * Quite a serious bug. Any indication that this will be looked at or is it yet 
   another essential feature that will be left buggy for countless releases to come?

 * Well, that’s priceless. New version released and the bug still not fixed. Epic
   fail!

 * Ditto. I’ve just been aimlessly trying to get this to work and it fails (wordpress
   3.0, orderby).
