Description

When a file is pinned in the Files section, it only shows a pin icon indicator but remains in its original position in the file list. Pinned files should be automatically moved to the top of the list for better visibility and easier access, which is the expected behavior for pin functionality.

Expected Behavior

Pinned files should automatically move to the top of the file list, making them easy to find.
This would make pinned files actually useful since they'd be easily accessible at the top.

Why This Matters

  • Improved UX: Pinned files are typically important and should be easily accessible
  • Visual hierarchy: Clear separation between pinned and unpinned content
  • Consistent behavior: Matches user expectations from other file management systems
  • Efficiency: Users can quickly find their pinned files without scrolling
