Firefox - browsing history

I've been using FF almost exclusively for a while now. About the only thing I don't dig is the way FF sorts browsing history. In IE, the history frame is sorted by expandable domains. This makes it very easy to quickly find & navigate to a previously viewed page. By default, FF displays the history as an alphebetical list of page titles. In FF, one can choose to View the history "by date and site ", but after closing the browser, it reverts back to alphabetical list. Is there an about:congfig setting to use "date & site" as the default?

...nevermind, the View by Date & Site seems to be sticking now.
