Default sort order for product admin

Is there somewhere to suggest Shopify changes?

In my stores with a lot of products, when doing product admin in the back end, not once have I ever wanted to view the list in an alphabetical list. But that is the default…

The only things I ever want to do are list by most recently created or edited, or search.

The search has been disappeared into a button instead of the helpful search bar, which seems like a step backwards.

And if I click to sort by created date, it shows them by oldest first, which is never the right order! I then have to press it again to see newest first.

Accidentally click on a product instead of opening it in a new tab? Yeah, right back to where you started and you have to reorder them all over again. So frustrating.

So just in case I’m being dim, is there anywhere I can set the default sort order in product admin? If not, please can someone in Shopify add this to a change consideration?
