Sorting the Device List by State

So, I noticed that some of my Hue bulbs were showing up as *disconnected*. I wanted to see which other devices were disconnected, so I clicked on the "State" column header expecting the list of devices to be res-sorted by state.

This doesn't look like it sorted by state?

I just tried this and got similar results. Looks like a bug

State sorting is, um, special. We attempt to do some interpretation of what a state might actually mean rather than just the straight value. This will sometimes result in odd looking results. There's an existing feature request to try to make this more intuitive, but it's always been very low priority.

I'd recommending just searching by "disconnected" since the search feature will use the raw state value.
