[Feature request] Sort files by access time
It would be great to be able to sort the files by last access time !
The idea would be to have the files opened the most recently in the top of the library.
I am surprised it is not already done. Or maybe I didn't find it…
There is some access date but it seems to refer to the access of the website where I found a document but not of the document itself. Or is it not working well ?

Thanks for your answer !
The time the file was last opened via Zotero is sufficient, I never open them in an other way, personally.
Thanks for your answer!
Would it be possible? Difficult?
This is perfect. My ideal version of this feature would be to have Zotero log the 'Last Read' time (i.e. log the most recent time the file attachment was opened via Zotero as an element of the parent item) and have this field be an option in the column dropdown list by which the whole library can be sorted. This is a feature I would use often enough that I would prefer it to be more accessible than an advanced search condition.
By the way, I am using Mac. However, because of this mismatch, I never trust opening PDFs from Spotlight, since if I stick to Zotero, I can even find the duplicates, the thing I cannot easily recognize using the macOS file management system.
Thanks by the way for Alfred. I know about that.
I recently switched from Mendeley (where this feature is available) to zotero and my my reading process so far would definitely benefit from this feature. Thanks!
