When you toggle from "name" to "date" the default should be to jump to
the start of the listing (and not to move point together with the
last recent entry):

Can you explain why your suggestion is a better default? I can see
advantages and disadvantages in both possibilities.

I'm using this feature since two weeks or so and whenever I type 's'
the next keyboard action is M-< (when I'm switching from name sorting
to date sorting).

Yes, especially when sorting by name. When you think the current
default is better, leave it as is.
