Use `buffer-menu'.  Click column-header `File', to sort by that column.
There is no sort-direction indicator,
`tabulated-list-gui-sort-indicator-(asc|desc)'.  There should be one,
whenever, as in this case, the column content is wider than one char.

This is a failing of the design of `tabulated-list-init-header'.  It's
often the case that some columns that are not limited in width to one
char have a `tabulated-list-format' whose second element is 1.  For
column `File' this is ("File" 1 t), for instance.  It's wrong for
`tabulated-list-init-header' to rely on that `1' to indicate whether
there's room for a sort indicator.
