Anyone know a workaround?
Thanks.

Hello Chris!
You can try to create an empty column via View \> Columns... sort by this column and load the playlist afterwards.
It's untested but it should work in theory 🙂
Best regards,

Now tested and confirmed! Brilliant! Thanks.
Suggestion for improvement: make Load Playlist select this order.

Also it would be good if there was a way of returning to playlist order from e.g. Title or Track order. Clicking on the blank column does not do this.
