Explain the problem as you see it

We use Tana as a team and heavily use references to create contextual awareness. For example, if I am writing an email to a #client, I'll pull up the client's node in the sidebar to quickly glance at recent activity related to the client. However, newer entries appear at the bottom, concealing the most recent (and relevant) information.

Why is this a problem for you?

When it comes to the Calendar, the most relevant information is often the most recent. Information pertaining to "Week 09" is more relevant than information pertaining to "Friday of Week 08", and information connected to "Yesterday" is more relevant than both. Search nodes seemed like a potential solution to this, but we cannot Group or sort by "OWNED_BY", and filters are all based on fields.

Suggest a solution

More robust sorting and filters in the References section of a node. At a minimum, being able to set default (or default for a supertag) sorting by date references. A more complete feature might be the ability to set default filters, sorting, and grouping on a per-supertag basis. For example, hiding "Appears as [field] in" might be useful for some node types.
