10.7: Improved Arrange By option in Finder�s column view

This may be obvious, but I hadn't seen it anywhere. Lion's Finder has a new option in the View Options window for Column views: Arrange By.

This setting allows you to group items by name, kind, application, various dates, size, and label. Within these groups, you can still sort by name, date modified, etc.

[crarko adds: This actually appeared in Snow Leopard, but has been enhanced in Lion, including the addition of keyboard equivalents. I'll publish it to draw people's attention to the feature, which is super-handy if you live in Column view, like I do.]
