I haven't tested this on Windows, but on Linux (Ubuntu) when sorting by column in the file panes, the column isn't highlighted in any way. Normally the column is shaded and/or the column header has an arrow indicating direction of sort.
This is a really useful feature, it's not immediately obvious how you're sorting files otherwise and can make it harder to find the file you want.
Request/Bug: Highlight column currently sorting by
