Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Sorting of the file list can only be done by the columns (makes sense), but sometimes you want to sort by type.
This quite common on other competitors and also for native file explorers like on KDE or Windows.

Describe the solution you'd like
When there is enough space (e.g. you are using a full HD display or more) then show a column in the file list with the file type.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Just use the file list filters
