Bug Description

Hi

When you sort folders (and probably files) with GUIDs as their name, the sorting will not be done properly alphabetically, but instead with "numeric" ordering. While this is nice for files/folders prefixed with numbers, it messes with GUIDs and thus causing weird ordering based on the amount of digits at the beginning of the GUID.

It would be nice if the sorting can fallback proper alphabetical order if file/folder names starts with a GUID.

Thank you for your time!

Steps to Reproduce

1. Make a blob container.
2. Upload files or folders with GUIDs as names with different amount of digits at the start.
3. Order them by name.

Actual Experience

When you sort folders (and probably files) with GUIDs as their name, the sorting will not be done properly alphabetically, but instead with "numeric" ordering, resulting in a nonsensical sorting for GUIDs.

Expected Experience

It would be nice if the sorting can fallback proper alphabetical order if file/folder names starts with a GUID.
