I'm not sure what you mean, the solution is obvious. A right click command to have the clips sort by, if not all, at least a handful of criteria, such as date and time created, name, etc. If it's not right click it can be that menu on the top right of each window.
What makes me really upset is that Adobe patially implements a feature to say Premiere CS6 has a new feature, to add one new feature to the list. But, as it is, it's absolutely useless for anything more than a few clips. Even if they wouldn't offer any kind of sorting, it would still be a useful feature if by default it was sorted by date and time of creation, but as it is, absolutely random, it's a waste of time. So Adobe said, let's include this new feature half way just to say we have a new feature, and if users want it the way it should be, we'll do it for Premiere CS6.5 or CS7 and add it to the list of features: "Hey, now you can sort in icon view" Woo hoo!
Adobe, don't waste people's time, either implement a feature completely, or don't implement it at all.
