Changes:
  + new sorting submenu for feeds with four
    built-in, brand-new sorting methods
  + new option for showing popup menus on

    Right-click behavior menu)
  - a newly added feed will now immediatly
    show its items, without requiring an update
    first.
  - feedparser.py patched again by the resident 
    Pears encoding guru Mark Moraes
  - switching to HAMSTERMODE will no longer get
    rid of your program settings for you
  - changed some defaults: time until a topic is 
    marked as read set to 0.25 s (was 0.5 s),
    default cache size set to 50 (was 25), 
    default auto-update frequency set to 24 h
    (was Never) and STORECOLUMNS is now
    by default on instead of off
  - Add/Modify dialog is resizable and the
    properties of feeds are displayed in a single
    box instead of being divided over two
  - updated About screen - it used to say only
    "RSS" reader, nothing about Atom
  - renamed updateItems method to updateFeed
    (what was I thinking?)
