ls --sort=time

[Kuno Woudt]

Dear ls maintainer,


I would like to suggest a subtle tweak to ls.  Almost every time
I try to sort a list of files by their age, I use "--sort=date".
ls helpfully informs me that 'date' is an invalid argument for '--sort',
however, i consistently fail to remember this.  I have asked several
of my acquaintances, and it turns out some of them have the same
experience.

So, I would like '--sort' to accept 'date' as an argument, which 
would have the same result '--sort=time' currently has.


Thank you for your time, 


Kuno Woudt.
