Expected / Desired Behavior / Question

When I click on a column header to sort, all the groupings expand and you are taken back to the top of the list (also the expand/collapse chevron for all groups does not change to reflect this). Then user needs to scroll back to the grouping they had opened originally. This really should keep the user in same view, then show the new column sort.

Research direction

Start with the Listview control and reproduce sorting by clicking a column header while groups are expanded. Trace how sorting affects the visible grouping state and scroll position. Done means sorting preserves the user's view, keeps the relevant grouping expanded or collapsed, and updates each group's chevron to match.
