I have a common navigator contribution to the Project Explorer view that creates a 
virtual node in the Project Explorer, for simplicity's sake - like so:

Project
+-Folder1
+-Folder1
+-aFile.ext
+-My Item

The problem is, I want my item to appear first in the list. I figured 
this would be as simple as changing the priority to 'high'. Well, that 
does move my item to the top of the list, but it appears to hose the sort 
order of the Project Explorer. Now I get this:

Project
+-aFile.ext
+-My Item
+-Folder1
+-Folder1

So it appears to be sorting alphabetically now, instead of using the 
normal resource-based sorting (Folders first, then files).  

Now, interestingly enough upping my priority to 'higher' has caused my item to 
be at the very top, *and* the normal resource-based sort behavior has been 
restored.

Further fiddling makes it seem like there is an issue with the JDT's content provider.  If I disable the JDT's "Java Elements" contribution, the sorting is never messed up no matter which priority I set my contribution to be.
