Description

It would be great if StorageExplorer allows sorting in a folder by allowing to add the metadata key as a column header.
In a next step it would be great if filtering on columns is enabled (like excel filters).

Research direction

Start by locating the StorageExplorer folder view that lists blobs and its existing column configuration. Define how a blob metadata key becomes a sortable column, then assess the requested Excel-like column filtering as a follow-up; done should include working sorting and filtering behavior for blob metadata.
