File list alphabetical sort order differs from windows explorer

Operating system version: Windows 7 Professional x64

Description

Given a folder with 4 files, Windows (7|server 2003) will sort them

-.txt
a.txt
aa.txt
a-b.txt

The FileZilla listing is ASCII order: (As does Ubuntu)

-.txt
a-b.txt
a.txt
aa.txt

This may be a won't fix, but in an ideal world an application will use the OS sort order, so thought I would throw this out here. In my Drupal theme directory with about 100 files along the lines of 'views-view-field--gigs-display--page-1--field-artistref-nid-1.tpl.php', having FileZilla sort them differently from explorer is annoying.

This is a duplicate of #2978.

Right now FileZilla lacks support for selecting a collation to be used for sorting.
